. One day we saw clouds similar to your excellent photograph and he told me they were called lenticular clouds. I asked him how did he know that? He told me they were learning about weather in school. I had never heard that term before!
Those are so beautiful, the misty tops make me think of cotton candy.

The smaller one off to the right is my favorite, because it kinda looks like a flying saucer.
