2. My name is Olaf. People say I look a lot like my brother, Chester, however, I am much
darker and not as nice. He is always so happy and shining, but I hate sunny days. So when Im
around, I like to bring lots of rain. Sometimes when me and Chester fight, I get so angry
that I make crazy storms with loud thunder and dangerous lightning. What cloud am i?

they nicknamed me Wispy Willow. I dont like that nickname very much. They also say I am
cold and bitter because I am made out of ice particles. I live really high up in the sky to get
away from the people who tease me. What cloud am i?

4. My name is Sammy. I am so large I cover the ENTIRE sky with my body. Its like I am a big,
gray blanket up in the sky. Sometimes (if Im in the mood to interact with people) I can get
myself low enough in the air that I can turn to fog. I like turning into fog because I watch
all the humans drive extra, extra slow because they cant see much. What cloud am i?
