By the way, this blog is under construction. As I perilously weave my way through the prickly underbrush of html, I may leave behind a few broken links or other mistakes. Patience is essential while I attempt to ace my crash course on code writing.

I'd also love to see lenticular clouds, but the KH apparently only lasts a few minutes, caused by a much faster moving layer of air above the cloud. Here are examples of lenticular (lenticular meaning "lense". I really oughtta brush up on my Latin) clouds.
