description: The Cloudspotter's Guide is the inaugural publication of The Cloud Appreciation Society.

It tells of the man who fell through a cloud, clouds being used to predict earthquakes and of one in Australia that glider pilots like to surf like a wave. And if you've ever wondered who would win in a punch-up between the storm Cumulonimbus thundercloud and the drizzly Nimbostratus, read on.
