A Cold Cloud
 |
| Cold Cloud Steam in February 2023 |
The clouds, bottom and lower right in the photograph, happens over water when the water temperature is warmer than the ambient air. The water in the distance, I believe, is Lewis Creek, Ferrisburgh, Vermont. The pink are higher elevation clouds. On Saturday, the temperatures outdoors were minus zero Fahrenheit.*
Sorry the picture isn't sharper. It was taken with my phone on zoom. Lewis Creek is 1 or 2 miles from my location.
* Of all the words I have to look up the spelling, one of the most difficult, Fahrenheit, I remember 99.9% of the time.
Lovely photo-I just add F instead of spelling it out-Happy Sunday
ReplyDeleteA lovely shot.
ReplyDeleteSometimes the simpler to spell words don’t look correctly spelled when they are. I find that more often these days. Scary!
ReplyDeleteYes, that's a tricky word. That first h seems to float about before you can establish where it goes.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that about the clouds, high and low. Very interesting! It's a lovely sky.
ReplyDeleteKathy,
ReplyDeleteI use the F as well except when sentence requires the word on searches.
Thank you, William
It is weird to see. If I had been smart, I could have driven down the road a short bit to get more pictures.
Oh Marie, I agree, spell right words looking spelled wrong is scary.
I notice the same thing more often than ever.
Liz,
I just realized there are 2 ehes. lol
Jeanie,
Its known mostly, I think, as fog. In frigid temperatures though, I heard on TV, ice steam. I just call it cold clouds.
Lovely photo ~ here on Cape Ann MA ~ we call it 'sea smoke'

Carol,
ReplyDeleteSea smoke is an elegant name. Thank you.
I read that is the correct name, even when it forms over lakes
Interesting explanation of the clouds. And lovely picture.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Nature never fails to surprise.
ReplyDeleteBecki,
ReplyDeleteWinter cold creates some pretty sights.
Hena,
Nature is dependable to show beauty.
