I absolutely loved this video! I have recently fallen in love with clear, sky-blue skies and fluffy, white clouds, and I'm trying to learn about them. I loved how the Nick Hilditch has shown Luke Howard's eyebrows and hair to be cloud shaped!

I'm curious, what is the rate at which clouds descend? On average I mean, considering thermals may delay that for some time.
