Gene Hart's Photos

Published at Space Weather, this great photo taken by Mr. Hart up in Maine shows a rare cloud formation. These clouds, sometimes called "billow clouds," are produced by the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability when horizontal layers of air brush by one another at different velocities. Below is a magnificent close up.
