Thing 054: Learn all meteorological cloud classifications and names

Overview: I had a very strong interest in meteorology. It's not quite as strong now, but I'm still interested enough to be joined up to a weather forum and so on. One thing I used to proud myself on was cloud names. Cumulonimbus. Cirrostratus. Even mammatus! But now, pretty much because of the vastly more experienced users on the weather forum, I've seen a couple of names chucked around that I'd never heard of. Lenticular? What's that? I don't have a clue, and so this is a quest to return my knowledge to a good ratio for my age, and maybe to add extra fuel that might further spark my interest back to former levels.

When will this goal be completed: When upon testing I can recognise a majority of clouds shown to me by picture.

A suitable time for beginning the goal: Any time.

Foreseeable problems: There are no reasonable unique problems that will hamper the completion of this goal.
