Cloud Watch #1 - Growth

It's been a while since I've looked skyward;

     to my tumultuous fluffy cotton:

coming to derive breaks from greens afar;

     Just out of sight - rest assured not forgotten;

silently nudging me forward,
   
     my Valentine from spring to autumn.

you leave me ajar, o my lucky star.

Altocumulus stratiformis (Cᴹ5)*
M= Medium (level) cloud

How to spot: progressively invades the sky, thickening and growing in size towards the top; persist over hours


20 April 2018, 1:47PM:

Cumulonimbus calvus (Cᴸ3)*
L= Low cloud

How to spot: above the "cauliflower" blooms one can observe a less defined and smoother roof growing above the rest; an indication of a sunny day


Which do you prefer?

  1. Hi Kimiko, I prefer the Altocumulus stratiformis (Cᴹ5)*'s appearance but I like the other one for its indication that a sunny day is approaching! ^^
