Ooh, nimbostratus asperitas! Have not seen any asperitas in a while, actually!!!
Good spotting!!
We report about the twists and turns of today's weather. This morning was bright and clear, with a warm breeze, but around midday, the sky started to melt into the horizon. Since then, the clouds have been piling up, rippling and folding into one another to make room for more.
"Vorticity 6"
It's time for another storm-chasing timelapse from photographer Mike Olbinski! "Vorticity 6" focuses on supercell thunderstorms and their tornadoes. (Video and image credit: M. Olbinski) Read the full article
I figured I should share my asperitas pics (which I took yesterday). They're a very rare type of cloud, and their name translates to "roughness". They likely formed here due to the approaching cold front carrying a storm with it - and October thunderstorms are quite a rare occurrence in my area. That being said the sky looked pretty unstable in the day before too, clouds wise anyway. Due to their rarity folks don't know a lot about them - and they're actually the newest described type of cloud! I'm a bit confused on my dates now... but from what I unearthed these clouds were only proposed around 2009 and added to the international cloud atlas in 2017.
