cloud formation - altocumulus tratiformis perlucidus undulatus
altocumulus - cumulus (puffy) clouds between 6,500 - 18,000 ft high
traitformis - stretching in long rows
perlucidus - with noticeable gaps between
undulautus - and which look like ripples
These types of clouds can be created when a warm front slides over the top of a cold front. It is more usual to see formations with the smaller ripples.
