Today's morning cloud coverage
[Avenue A and St. Mark's Place]
Thank goodness there's social media for people to know whether it was (or is!) cloudy outside. This morning's clouds were particularly photogenic ... and maybe a little creepy ... or menacing... threatening? Whatever! Probably just a metaphor for life anyway.

Apparently these clouds are "Very Cool Nimbo Cumulus, not seen very often," per WABC 7 meteorologist Bill Evans.

ReplyDeleteI think the last time those clouds were seen in NY was in Ghostbusters!

That time when Mammatus Cumulus also formed over EV/NYC.
