Did I catch a lenticular cloud yesterday?
cloud formation by scilly puffin, on Flickr
The pic doesn't really do it justice, it was quite an impressive cloud.
(but too late in the winter season for deep cold and snow).
Famous last words Ian, I remember getting heavy snow at Easter a few years back, was heading to Brands for the Transatlantic trophy but the cancelled
so build a snowman in the south downs instead
Ian....being the weather god of TP...could you please clear the skies tomorrow morning?
Ta
I had a few breaks in the cloud up near Sheffield this morning,
not brilliant, more reference shots than anything.
Shot with my little Canon sx520 on A (for Awsome )
No filters, I just waited for it to peek through, and fired away.

It was very curious the colour the sky went, too, thats pretty much true to life, but no doubt slightly saturated due to the fact that I was using a bridge camera.Those are excellent captures, far better than I have.
Thanks RuthChris the second one is especially fab.
Cracking set Michael, that last one looks awfully familiarthe final bottom right shot came as a little spot in the cloud opened up.
Thanks Ruth

Then I remembered, we probably weren't that far apart at that time
No chance with the cloud cover in Kent
Well, you weren't going to see many meteors at that time of day anyway..... . . and not to mention the thunder and torrential rain here at Folkestone this morning, although New Romney was hit harder.
Your thoughts with whats happend in Mexico Ian?

Curiously I saw more sun dogs ( dog suns? @Ian D J ) Satuarday, in the chilterns than I have ever seen before, they kept appearing and fading,
two and then 3 at once, but I was too slow it was there and gone.
It also produced the first snow of the winter down this way, about 1.5ins over night

LOL well we've blown a few cobwebs away tonight Ian*Cough* Cor, look at the dust in here due to neglect.
I won't be too far away.

Cheers Andy, & I've never really thought about "the time of year" TBH.Beautiful. I saw one too on Saturday.
Thought it was a bit odd this time of the year....
I don't know why, but I thought they only came out to play in the summer!!Cheers Andy, & I've never really thought about "the time of year" TBH.
Perhaps @Ian D J can spread a *cough* bit of light on the subject?I don't know why, but I thought they only came out to play in the summer!!
Now that you put it like that, it makes perfect sense!!If anything, they are more common in the winter due to the lower afternoon sun and more in the way of "ice" based clouds (cirrus and cirrostratus).
Now that you put it like that, it makes perfect sense!!
Long time no speak Ian...
Hope you're well buddy
