Cumulus Humilis: A Fair Weather Cloudscape
The dawn brought clear sky But, in a few hours, the warm sun would break the morning chill, and by mid-morning the perfectly clear sky would begin to lose its fair complexion as small buds of whiteness pop up hither and yon. So started a day when cumulus humilis, the most basic of the cumulus cloud family, would fill the skyscape. This cloud type often is the forerunner to larger, more developed cumulus varieties that fill the afternoon sky. But today, these fair-weather cumuli dot the sky within the large high-pressure cell that sat over the region.

Neither Rain Nor Snow
Neither rain nor snow, nor freezing rain, for that matter. That is how one must often characterize winter precipitation. Rain and snow are just the most common members of the winter precipitation congregation, but not the only ones. Others include: ice pellets, snow grains, graupel, ice crystals and ice needles and also known by local names in different regions such as sleet, hail, soft hail, snow pellets and diamond dust.

Frost Pockets
The lengthening nights during the late summer and autumn bring noticeably colder minimum temperatures across most of North America. If such nights have clear skies and fairly calm regional winds, the potential for temperatures to fall below the freezing mark increases as the days move on toward winter. This is especially true in low-lying terrain, hollows and drainage bottoms where cold air can pool. Such areas are more susceptible to frost than the surrounding terrain and are therefore known as frost pockets.

The Fog Rises
Fog is actually a cloud formed or lying on the ground -- even those patchy fogs which fill low spots or hollows in the terrain. Radiation fog forms when the air near the surface cools to its saturation temperature due to nocturnal radiation cooling.

The Superior Mirage
We don't hear or know as much about the superior mirage, so many think it is a rare occurrence. However, one form is so common that most of us do not recognize it as a mirage. The superior mirage can make objects appear to be floating in the air or cause objects actually located below the horizon to appear above it.

A Study in Opposites: Thundersnow
For most North Americans, the combination, known as 'thundersnow', is a very unusual event. Even where they are most common, thundersnow occurs no more than a few times per year, usually when winter storms with substantial warm and humid air sectors spawn thunderstorms along their fronts, or when air crosses a large lake or rises over a mountain range.
