…which can be observed from this mid-level cloud. An original, recently remastered time-lapse of the
sky with clouds.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
11 seconds and 27 frames.
High level clouds with some streaking; ice crystals slowly spreading out in lines as the strong jet
stream pushes them along rapidly overhead with low transformation.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
21 seconds frames.
Bright Cantaloupe highlights in the bright precipitation of these stratus clouds, and Halloween
orange colors on the fading rain at right of the frame. Silhouetted bare ridges in the lower quarter,
under these clouds that darken in as time progresses, the open sky a perfect Mid-blue.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
10 seconds and 15 frames.
Virga falls from a few high-level clouds, while these Cirrus move horizontally with speed on the jet
stream and a warm front.

The scientific adage of ‘what goes up, must come down’ rings true in this scene where, at right,
lower-level clouds rise in convection. Over this ridgeline, there are pockets of air that fall
through the cloud as cold patches, creating these distinctive looking clouds. While the dire, dark
gray, bizarre looking ‘mammatus’ are this size only 30-40000 ft and attached to monstrous storms,
these are clearly harmless clouds.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
7 seconds and 15 frames.
Precipitation that evaporates in the dryer air that it falls into is called Virga. These low-level
fluffy and convective, as well as stratus clouds, are shown with camera facing northeast, away from
the direction of the sunset. Pleasant meadows and hills underline the pink and transforming clouds, with
the Virga appearing more stationary.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
