Stratus is the most common answer most people will tell you. Stratus is a cloud that looks like fog would if it was on the surface. In simpler terms it's fog aloft, but not exactly. The lesser known cloud aloft is nimbostratus. Nimbostratus is a mid-cloud that protrudes down as it precipitates out of itself. Usually when there is a steady rain or snow, it's falling from nimbostratus.

Fog is closest to the ground. If you're referring to the lowest-lying clouds that are still "up there," stratus clouds.
