Partly cloudy

11 April 2012 around 6:15 p.m.

Tall, billowing clouds to the south 

 

 

 

The photo above reminds me of Oregon.  Sometimes a domed cloud or fog would form over a high point, almost as if it were clinging to the landscape like a cap or a beanie.  My co-worker (Hi, Hillary!) was from B.C. and called that type of hat a tuque, so we called this "tuque fog."  The thin clouds wrapping over the tops of the puffy clouds above are getting close to being tuques!

P.S.  The title of this post is a tribute to one of my favorite Pixar short films, Partly Cloudy.  The clouds tonight reminded me of the clouds in that movie!
