Pileus forming over the ash cloud from an eruption of Sarychev Peak A pileus ( pron.: / ˈ p aɪ l iː ə s / ; Latin for cap ), also called scarf cloud or cap cloud , is a small, horizontal, altostratus cloud that can appear above a cumulus or cumulonimbus cloud , giving the parent cloud a characteristic "hoodlike" appearance. Pilei tend to change shape rapidly. [ citation needed ] They are formed by strong updraft at lower altitudes, acting upon moist air above, causing the air to cool to its dew point .
