Boring blue sky

No clouds today - not one! I've included the sun and some vegetation in this photo, or it would be just a blue square.

The Cloud Appreciation Society's manifesto includes the words,
We pledge to fight ‘blue-sky thinking’ wherever we find it. Life would be dull if we had to look up at cloudless monotony day after day.

I'm hoping for some clouds tomorrow, even if only a few little ones. And some rain. It hasn't rained for days. The garden is parched.

Cloudy ripples

Another hot day. At about 12:30 these neat cirrocumulus stratiformis were overhead, high in the atmosphere (between 5 to 14 km or 16,000 to 45,00 ft) where upward air currents meet high cirrostratus clouds formed of ice crystals, some of which turn into supercooled water droplets. Not long afterwards they'd disappeared, or almost disappeared; just a ghostly trace of a few in small transparent patches in an otherwise blue sky.

Frill

The day started with bright sunshine...

Cold sunshine, contrails and a cirrus feather

Almost invisible moon

Mid-afternoon, and more blue sky with just a thin trace of cirrus so you could hardly see the moon, but it's there. Please let it rain soon!

Blue sky and a slight thaw

Some sunshine this afternoon.

Blue sky

Hazy blue sky with some cumulus in the distance (to the east). Weather forecasters say it'll get colder.

Moon in the morning

When I opened the curtains this morning there were clouds like surf on a beach. By the time I'd found a camera, this was all that was left.

Cloudless sky

Warm and sunny afternoon.

Look closely - it's there.

Diagonals

Fine and sunny but cold.

Calm after snow and sleet

Today we had wind, rain, sleet and snow (which didn't stick). This was a calm period at about 5 pm.

Clear sky, cold wind

Cold wind all day.

Cloudless skies

No clouds again - it'll be another cold night.

No clouds today

Sharp frost forecast for tonight.

Barely visible

Mostly blue skies over the last few days.

Lined up

Seen in the distance - a row of cumulus parallel to the wind direction.

Sunshine & light showers

Mostly blue
