When I first noticed these I called them jellyfish clouds. I was mortified to find out that other people also call them that. You can see the rain dropping out of them, presumably bringing cold air with it.This was a very unusual cloud formation near Start Point in Devon in June 2017. I have posted this before and see below the photo to see what change to the weather occured.

It’s called a morning glory cloud. A convergence zone or an atmospheric wave.I was expecting something squallish but nothing happened ?
Ah thats certainly what it was thanks! I just checked the metadata and it was at 6pm so not strictly a morning phenomena but seems to be very rare other than a particular place in Australia.It’s called a morning glory cloud. A convergence zone or an atmospheric wave.
Much better view than mine.
This is what my 2nd Jan looked like: fitting two new batteries, a BEP DVSR and a Victron Smartshunt.
Now, I can't feel my back.
A favourite of 2019. Currently on the Middle Sunk, 3m + tide. Obvious it was a Levington based boat.
