Cloud base height profiles measured with laser ceilometer are studied using multifractal approach. The irregular structure of the signals is a benchmark for nonlinear dynamical processes. A hierarchy of generalized dimensions determines the intermittency of the signal. The multi-affine properties are described by the h(γ) function.
