Clouds of the Day - Monday, March 27, 2023

March 27, 2023/ Craig Johnson

One of the most unusual cloud formations is what you see below. This morning a patch of Cirrus uncinus produced these beautiful brushed patterns of ice crystals. Cirrus uncinus are hooked cirrus with ice crystals falling from a dense cloud. Uncinus are usually found without the cloud head which suggests the head has precipitated out leaving only the trail of falling ice crystals. The patterns illustrate nature’s beauty created by precipitation aloft. It’s to not be impressed!
