How do clouds form near the ground?

Clouds form near the ground in roughly the same way that clouds form well above the ground: through some process, the air is brought to a state of saturation with respect to water vapor, and water vapor condenses to form cloud droplets. read more

Its called a cloud if its near the ground. If it is on the ground, it is then called fog. Now, if you are looking for a specific type of cloud, I can't answer that without more detail. read more

Clouds are also distinguished by the heights above ground level at which they form. High clouds: Cirrus, cirrostratus and cirrocumulus clouds are delicate wispy clouds that are located at altitudes above 20,000 feet and composed of ice crystals, because at such altitudes temperatures are perpetually below freezing. read more

Clouds form near the ground in roughly the same way that clouds form well above the ground: through some process, the air is brought to a state of saturation with respect to water vapor, and water vapor condenses to form cloud droplets. Near the ground, this can take place by some combination of cooling the air and/or adding water vapor. read more

Clouds and precipitation often are found on the windward side of a mountain; clouds that form in this way can cover the tops of some mountains permanently. Conversely, air that blows down the slope of a mountain sinks, in turn causing water droplets to evaporate and preclude cloud development. read more
