In the case of a WV Eddy convective cloudiness can develop, especially near the leading edge of the wet air stream, close to the transition zone between the high and low WV pixel values. Cloudiness can result in a shower or in some cases in a thunderstorm.

A WV Vortex is sometimes associated with high level clear air turbulenc (CAT).
In the case of a WV Eye even low level cloudiness (e.g. SC Sheets) can dissolve
In the case of a WV Eye the production of cloudiness can be inhibited, e.g. underneath a subsidence-inversion
