Explanation

During a warm front passage, nimbostratus (NS) clouds are low-level clouds that produce steady, continuous precipitation. These dark, gray clouds form in the lower atmosphere as the warm air is lifted steadily over the retreating cold air. NS clouds typically extend across large horizontal areas and are responsible for the widespread, light-to-moderate rainfall characteristic of warm fronts.
