cloud appreciation


i love clouds. check this blog over time and see how many cloud pictures show up. as a long time cloud watcher, i am intrigued by the presence and work of the cloud appreciation society. i've featured their work here before.

so i was pretty interested when i came across an article by a member of the c.a.s. consisting of a short slide show with explanations that suggests that we should redefine our naming of clouds. now that's not a big big deal but it's a cool argument because it seems to me that there is something changing in the variety of clouds that i see and how they behave. some of the pictures that accompany the article are not only amazing to look at but really explain in as graphic a manner as possible, just why we need to rethink the naming of clouds. have a look! .
