Professor Giles Harrison, who led an international research team including scientists from the University of Reading's Meteorology department, the Met Office and the European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting, said: «The sky is often full of clues to weather changes, and asperitas provides distinctive visualisation of complex and turbulent air motions in the lower atmosphere.»
So while the general idea of turbulence in air is correct, your calculation underestimates the tendency for turbulent flow.
