'Countryside and North Wales Coast Panorama' above Betws yn Rhos, Conwy, North Wales
Took this shot on an earlier daily 'Lockdown Walk' 300m (822ft) above my home in the village of Betws yn Rhos, Conwy, North Wales.
Four miles North (centre right) is the coastal resort of Colwyn Bay. Two miles beyond is the limestone Little Orme's Headland overlooking Penrhyn Bay and in the middle distance the Irish Sea.
Because of our 'Unique Topography', with valleys to the open coastline and the steep surrounding hillsides, invariably several weather systems converge or one divides.
In my previous image posted of Moelfre Uchaf, taken half an hour earlier, the overhead clouds are proceeding due East powered by a Westerly airflow. Here, however, the much higher hillsides behind and to my left have divided the airflow sending these Cumulus Clouds North Easterly instead.
