A cloud base altitude calculator estimates the height of cumulus cloud bases above ground level using the relationship: cloud base (ft) ≈ (surface temperature − dew point) × 227. A surface temperature of 30°C and dew point of 15°C predicts cloud bases at ~3,400 feet — used by pilots for flight planning.
