This from the web:
Cumulus clouds are part of the larger category of free-convective cumuliform clouds, which include cumulonimbus clouds. The latter genus-type is sometimes categorized separately as cumulonimbiform due to its more complex structure that often includes a cirriform or anvil top.
Abbreviation: Cu
Altitude: 200–2,000 m, (1,000–6,600 ft)
Appearance: Low-altitude, fluffy heaps of clouds with cotton-like appearance.
Genus: Cumulus (heap)

I made a huge tray of these today, and using the convection setting makes them crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I just love them!
A colorful westbound stack train wastes no time getting through the west end of Rice and away from the convection to the southeast. I was hoping to better scope out this spot, but the timing was tight and I had no chance.
Due nuvole, sovrapposte, una delle quali illuminata dall'ultimo raggio di sole.
Buona giornata

As of this upload date, active convective storms have been infrequent this spring. However, when storms occurred they put on a great sky show.

Un décollage de type falaise, très court où la technique de deco préconisée par les locaux est de reculer de 2 pas et de courir com’ dans les années 90… le face voile peut être une bonne alternative à condition de maîtriser cette technique par vent nul. Site de thermique un pilote local m’a dit faire régulièrement 30 km et il est possible de enjoindre la mer à plus de 60km. Ce ne sera pas le cas ce jour là étant donné qu’un typhon se pointe dans le sud du pays et ses cirrus annonciateurs empêchent la convection de s’instaler… shit : )
Très bon accueil à l’ecole j’ai loué une voile en montrant qlq photos et ma licence pour 60€ la journée et 6 euros la rotation
A very short, cliff-type take-off where the deco technique recommended by the locals is to take 2 steps back and run like in the 90's... face gliding can be a good alternative provided you master this technique in zero wind conditions. On the thermalling site, a local pilot told me that he regularly does 30 km and it's possible to reach the sea at more than 60 km. This won't be the case that day, as a typhoon is approaching in the south of the country and its cirrus clouds are preventing convection from taking hold... shit : )
Very good welcome at the school, I rented a glider showing a few photos and my licence for 60€ a day and 6 euros a rotation.

Un despegue muy corto tipo acantilado donde la técnica de deco recomendada por los lugareños es dar 2 pasos atrás y correr como en los 90... el face gliding puede ser una buena alternativa siempre que domines esta técnica en condiciones de viento cero. En el sitio de thermalling, un piloto local me dijo que regularmente hace 30 km y es posible llegar al mar a más de 60 km. No será el caso ese día, ya que un tifón se aproxima por el sur del país y sus cirros impiden que se instale la convección... mierda : )
Muy buena acogida en la escuela, alquilé un parapente enseñando unas fotos y mi licencia por 60 euros el día y 6 euros la rotación.

# I ORIGINALLY WAS GOING TO EDIT THIS IN BW USING THE DARK CLOUD FILTER EFECT OF MAKING IT ALMOST SEEM LUNAR... BUT, THE OBVIOUS SUN SPOT TERMINATED THAT APPROACH.....
Around lunchtime on Oct 23, the skies erupted with these non-convective mammatus clouds. Winds at the surface was light. An approaching weather front and associated jet stream must have created lots of turbulence aloft.
Taken with iPhone 11 Pro Max.
Cloud type: Altocumulus stratiformis opacus mamma
Using a Fujifilm X-T5 and a 8mm f/3.5 lens, I was able to capture one of the best examples of this cloud type while nearly overhead.
Cumulus congestus is a type of cloud characterized by a puffy, white appearance with significant vertical development, often forming on clear, sunny days. These clouds, sometimes called "towering cumulus," have a cauliflower-like structure with sharp, bulging outlines and can grow tall, reaching heights of several feet. They form due to strong upward air currents (convection) in a moist, unstable atmosphere, typically under warm conditions. While they don’t always produce rain, they can develop into cumulonimbus clouds, which bring thunderstorms, heavy rain, or other severe weather. Visually, they look more robust than fair-weather cumulus but less ominous than fully developed storm clouds.
At around 7:15PM, an outflow boundary zone collided with small convective cells to produce this rather chaotic sky. Winds briefly gusted to 35 mph as temperatures fluctuated from 82F to 87F in updrafts and downdrafts.
Taken 17 June.
On this day, a large cold upper level low moved in from California and initiated high wind warnings over much of Arizona (I received gusts to 40 mph). Just after this system passed, temperatures dropped from the mid 40's to 32F with a wintery mix of rain/snow, grapple, ice pellets, etc. The odd looking cloud at center could have been hiding a cold funnel since I observed a weak rotation.
Taken at 2:45PM from Oracle, Arizona.
This high based explosive convective up-draft was formed and an anvil developed in just a few minutes. Very picturesque.

Sunspots are temporary spots on the Sun's surface that are darker than the surrounding area. They are regions of reduced surface temperature caused by concentrations of magnetic flux that inhibit convection. Sunspots appear within active regions, usually in pairs of opposite magnetic polarity. Their number varies according to the approximately 11-year solar cycle.
Indicating intense magnetic activity, sunspots accompany other active region phenomena such as coronal loops, prominences, and reconnection events. Most solar flares and coronal mass ejections originate in these magnetically active regions around visible sunspot groupings.

She used my address and my name

As I was preparing to photograph Bald eagles, I noticed this wild sky. Apparently this phenomenon is called "Cloud Streets" or "Horizontal Convective Rolls". Photo taken with my iPhone as I was holding a long zoom lens at the time for the eagles.
Once again we stood on our front porch west of Buena Vista at sunset and watched thunderhead tops build 100 miles to the east along the Front Range. These were impressive cloud formations. I do not know what the height of these clouds might have have been since the lower section of cloud is below the horizon and mountains. This was the western edge of a mesoscale convection complex of storms that stretched n.e. well into Nebraska.
Crawler Lightning Over Central Texas, April 26, 2023.
Anvil crawler lightning, sometimes called spider lightning, is created when leaders propagate through horizontally-extensive charge regions in mature thunderstorms, usually the stratiform regions of mesoscale convective systems.
# Seriously, I just found this discard on a drop drive, let it sit on my desk hitting me with guilt vibes for allowing it to languish... so, its premier! Actually, I like oddities, but remain uncertain how many minutes it will survive in my stream. [sigh] Well, what the hell? ;-}
# I do have a large collection of experimental solar photography, including sun spot imagery, high ISO shots, et al., some results of which are posted here, shot w/ a relatively pedestrian Fuji. This looks like it might have been shot with an iPhone, however! But if you like it... it stays. 8^)
This is the full panoramic image of the storms over Plainfield, Channahon, and Morris. Sunset is now mere minutes away, and by now the cells over Plainfield and Channahon have largely collapsed and are being blown apart by winds aloft. The largest cell over Morris has also hit its peak, but it's still expanding and is about to swallow the moon. Lightning bolts were easily visible, but I didn't capture any unfortunately. Meanwhile, the entire set of storms reflects a fine combination of orange and purple against the deep blues of the darkening eastern sky.
Hot, humid, & stagnant daytime air was ripe to cause convective activity in the early evening, resulting in these three cells to pop alongside each other. They continued to grow until eventually and essentially blowing themselves apart. Looking east out over Plainfield, Channahon, and Morris, Illinois.

This type of late day isolated convection in ones neighborhood reveals the scale of these clouds. This is a good example of a cumulus congestus cloud type. Due to its late day development, it was inevitable that it would dissipate shortly after this image as it did.

Day 179: Convective Activity
A dramatic look at some nearby convective activity, which eventually moved in our direction but didn't really put down any significant rain.
[210B98]
In the late afternoon and evening huge supercells developed over northwestern France. They clustered into a linear MCS (Mesoscale Convective System), racing towards Flanders and the North Sea.
So it missed my location.
However, the storms' gustfront moved away as an outflow boundary in northeasterly direction.
On this boundary air was lifted and some new showers and storms developed near my location in the western Netherlands.
The result is in this picture.

Taken when winds were sustained 40mph with gusts to 55mph. These clouds were moving >100mph in a low level jet stream @ 10,000 ft. My altitude is 6000 ft. At 35,000 feet, the mid-latitude jet stream was >150mph (very strong at any time of year).
Taken with iPhone 11 Pro Max on afternoon of 5 April.

I popped out last night in the hope that the day's convective cloud would not burn off too quickly. Luckily I found a new composition looking towards Haytor I liked just as the light started to break through giving some very dramatic conditions.
‘Twas a beautiful display of convective blowoff from the previous evening’s storms over NW Missouri.

For the past two days, I've been practicing taking pictures of the Sun to prepare myself for the upcoming Solar Eclipse.
In NY State, the Eclipse will be partial! I just hope that the weather will be favorable.
The spot on the upper right of the sun's surface is actually a sunspot!
Sunspots are temporary phenomena on the Sun's atmosphere that appear as spots darker than the surrounding areas. They are regions of reduced surface temperature caused by concentration of magnetic field flux that inhibit convection.
Sunspots usually appear in pairs of opposite magnetic polarity. Their number varies according to the approximately 11-year solar cycle.

May 25th, southeast of Tucumcari, New Mexico. We emerged from the rain and hail in the developing forward flank to gasp at this hovering beauty. Tiny little rear flank downdraft booping through it back there.
It’s fascinating how tight these bases can be, with convective inhibition consolidating all the instability into a focused channel, like you can visualize the hole it’s working to punch through the cap. This thing put on such a great show at sunset and especially after dark.
A cloud is a visible mass of condensed droplets or frozen crystals floating in the atmosphere above the surface of the Earth or another planetary body. It is also a visible mass attracted by gravity (Clouds can also occur as masses of material in interstellar space, where they are called interstellar clouds and nebulae.) The branch of meteorology in which clouds are studied is nephology.
Clouds are divided into two general categories: layered and convective. These are named stratus clouds (or stratiform, the Latin stratus means "layer") and cumulus clouds (or cumuliform; cumulus means "piled up").
