The clouds over the northeastern U.S. have been getting higher for the past 30 years, as warmer temperatures near the Earth push them upwards. This could damage forests in the Appalachian Mountains. When the cloud base moves up, many spruce and fir trees can’t get water from the clouds. If the trend continues, deciduous trees such as sugar maple and yellow birch, that don’t use clouds for water, will move up the mountains, taking the place of fir trees.

They found that in 18 of the airports, the cloud ceiling has climbed an average of (19 feet) per year since 1973.read more
