29 Μαΐ 2024 · Lenticular clouds, or Altocumulus lenticularis, are stationary cloud formations known for their lens-like shape and smooth appearance. These clouds are often mistaken for unidentified flying objects (UFOs) due to their distinct and dramatic visual structures.
These lens-shaped orographic wave clouds form when the air is stable and winds blow across hills and mountains from the same or similar direction at different heights through the troposphere....
Figure 1: Lenticular cloud diagram. The above simplified diagram represents stable atmospheric flow from left to right. As the atmosphere is forced up and over a barrier, such as a mountain, lenticular clouds may form at different elevations downwind of the barrier.
11 Δεκ 2018 · They are the infamous “Lenticular Clouds.” These beautiful clouds are very unique to mountainous regions, and do not form over areas that cannot obstruct wind flow. While they are always a treat to observer, I thought I’d spend this blog talking a little bit about how they form.
Lenticular clouds are stationary lens-shaped clouds that form in the troposphere, normally in perpendicular alignment to the wind direction. There are three types of lenticular clouds: altocumulus standing lenticular (ACSL), stratocumulus standing lenticular (SCSL), and; cirrocumulus standing lenticular (CCSL) Formation
31 Μαΐ 2017 · A lenticular cloud, or by the more scientific name Altocumulus lenticularis, is a fascinating cloud formation, if simply for its strangeness. Want to know how to spot one of these saucer-like...
Recognize special clouds (e.g. castellanus, billow, lenticular, rotor, banner, fractus, etc.) Lenticular clouds have a lens-shaped or almond-shaped cross section. These clouds form in the crests of mountain waves (lee waves) if the air is relatively humid.
