Red sky at night, sailors delight.
When we see a red sky at night, this means that the setting sun is sending its light through a high concentration of dust particles. This usually indicates high pressure and stable air coming in from the west. Basically good weather will follow.
Red sky in morning, sailor’s warning.
A red sunrise reflects the dust particles of a system that has just passed from the west. This indicates that a storm system may be moving to the east. If the morning sky is a deep fiery red, it means a high water content in the atmosphere. So, rain is on its way.
Evaporating rain (virga)
I assume this is Bakersfield, CA. I happened to spend the evening here, and the cirrus display was indeed impressive !Jellyfish over Bakersfield.

I'll see your Jellyfish and raise you one Swirlyatus. I could only get two quick photos through a dirty plane window with my phone as we were descending into Brisbane on 6th September. It looked far more awesome in real life because it was turning and spreading. As the plane turned I lost sight of it and I don't know what scared the person next to me more - me randomly exclaiming "No, no, don't!" or my explanation of why I said it.
I have slightly adjusted the contrast.
(Mick, how do I post a vertically cropped shot?)
Thanks for fixing it. I use Microsoft Office Picture Manager. It was saved in my files rotated and a little contrast added before I uploaded it. I went back to the original, opened rotated and saved through GIMP, it loaded fine. Must be a glitch with Office Picture Manager. I'll use GIMP from here on out.You need to to rotate it with some other program. I fixed that one for you.
What were you uploading from.
So what does that? A cold dry down burst?Pretty cool "hole-punch" cloud in the North (San Francisco) Bay today.

The sky looking east this morning from Hampshire, about an hour ago (7.45am). Straight out of an apocalyptic Facebook post! Anyone who believes in "chemtrails" would have been having kittens...
A friend just posted this on Facebook. He is near Santa Rosa. He's wondering why the shadow trail which turns into contrail. Does anyone have any ideas?
A small but vivid sun dog in an old contrail, on the first really frosty morning of the autumn (snapped one-handed while cycling!)
(Also Nibiru hiding in the trees )
I think the camera was tilted. As I said, I grabbed the shot one-handed while on my bike (I was running late and couldn't stop!)I think this a fragment of 22° halo rather than a sun dog, unless you tilted the camera with respect to the horizon.

This is the thread for interesting pics of the sky, and these fit the bill don't they? I've never seen a phenomenon quite like this.THAT being said? Pretty pics (and certainly you might copyright them, and sell on e-BaY)....but....is there a "point" here?
