The lowest level of a given cloud or cloud layer in the atmosphere, relative to the observer's position above the ground.
A drainage wind that flows downhill due to gravity, often associated with cold air descending from elevated regions.
Anticyclones are areas of high atmospheric pressure that bring hot, dry weather in the summer and cold fronts in the winter.
