a type of service that allows people to get money from their bank account by using any of the cash machines that have a Cirrus sign on it. a form of cloud that is light and shaped like feathers, high in the sky
a wispy white cloud (usually of fine ice crystals) at a high altitude (4 to 8 miles)
One of the three basic cloud forms (the others are cumulus and stratus) It is also one of the three high cloud types Cirrus are thin, wispy clouds composed of ice crystals and often appear as veil patches or strands In the mid-latitudes, cloud bases are usually found between 20,000 to 30,000 feet, and it is the highest cloud that forms in the sky, except for the tops, or anvils, of cumulonimbus, which occasionally build to excessive heights
High altitude cloud (6,000 to 12,000m) composed of ice crystals with a delicate and whispy appearance
High clouds, usually above 18,000 feet, composed of ice crystals and appearing in the form of white, delicate filaments or white or mostly white patches or narrow bands
High-level clouds (16,000 feet or more), composed of ice crystals and appearing in the form of white, delicate filaments or white or mostly white patches or narrow bands Cirrus clouds typically have a fibrous or hairlike appearance, and often are semi-transparent Thunderstorm anvils are a form of cirrus cloud, but most cirrus clouds are not associated with thunderstorms
Clouds that are thin, feather-like ice crystal clouds in patches or narrow bands Cirrus clouds are sometimes called mares tails The bases of cirrus clouds are above 16,000 feet AGL
a high-altitude cloud composed of narrow bands or patches of thin, generally white, fleecy parts
Cirrus is a network of cash machines which are part of the MasterCard system If you have a card with the Cirrus sign on it you can take out cash from ATMs around the world which display both the Cirrus and MasterCard signs The cash is given out in the local currency and debited to your account in pounds There is a charge for using Cirrus - usually 1 5-2 5 per cent of the amount taken out

Those near the head of annelids are Tentacular cirri; those of the last segment are caudal cirri
n wispy clouds high in the atmosphere, made almost entirely out of ice crystals, rarely ever produce rain
Cirrus Fibratus Ice crystal clouds in the form of thin elements that allow sunlight or moonlight to easily pass through Cirrus Dense Ice crystal clouds which are more dense and allow less sunlight or moonlight to pass through Cirrus Uncinus Ice crystal clouds that are often shaped like a comma, terminating at the top in a hook, or contains tufts in the upper parts
The external male organ of trematodes and some other worms, and of certain Mollusca
These clouds contain ice crystals and generally look like white wispy feathers
a cloud of a class characterized by thin white filaments or narrow bands and composed of ice crystals These clouds are of high altitude (20,000-40,000 ft or 6000 -12,000 m)
High-level clouds (5,000 metres or more), composed of ice crystals and appearing in the form of white, delicate filaments or white or mostly white patches or narrow bands Cirrus clouds typically have a fibrous or hairlike appearance, and often are semi-transparent Thunderstorm anvils are a form of cirrus cloud, but most cirrus clouds are not associated with thunderstorms
