A cumulus cloud forms when masses of warm, moist air move rapidly upward. This process is driven by atmospheric convection, where warm air rises, cools, and condenses into water droplets around cloud condensation nuclei, forming clouds. However, if you are referring to a more severe weather phenomenon, it could also be a thunderstorm or a cumulonimbus cloud, which can develop from cumulus clouds under certain conditions.In broader terms, the rapid upward movement of warm, moist air can also contribute to the formation of tropical storms or other severe weather systems, depending on the scale and intensity of the air movement.
