Clouds of Southern Arizona




These Cloud formations were encountered while on the Middlemarch Road in Western Cochise County, near Dragoon, AZ. Taken around noon, the temperature was a balmy 65F. After seeing the weather reports from the North East, it almost seemed unfair....

This is a shot of a "Century Plant" what I believe to be known as "Agave Parryi" described here by the experts at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum.















Some of the clouds are what meteorologists describe as "lenticular" created by stable, moist airflow over mountains. Science aside, they are beautiful!












Here is a great view of a lenticular cloud. Notice the lens-like rings around it...















These smooth-edged clouds are an unusual sight. At least to this native of Southern Arizona!













Just another day in Paradise!








If you have any cool cloud shots that you would like to share, shoot me an e-mail!
