Cloud Base For a given cloud or cloud layer, it is the lowest level in the atmosphere where cloud particles are visible.
What is the cloud base? A certain temperature and dew point exist on ground surface under normal conditions. As you go higher in the atmosphere, the air temperature cools faster than the dew point temperature. Condensation and clouds form when both readings reach the same point. So the closer the temperature and dew point readings are, the lower the cloud cover will be, if they're within five degrees, expect fog.
