SkyWatch #18


Welcome to this SkyWatch post, coming to you from a farm in northeast Iowa, USA. Please visit the official SkyWatch website to find links to SkyWatchers around the globe! Many thanks to the good folks who keep SkyWatch operating smoothly every week!

This first photo was taken one morning a few weeks ago when the clouds were simply marvelous! The tractor is an Allis-Chalmers 8030.

On another morning in October, these intriguing streaky clouds were decorating the eastern sky like a set of streamers! I wonder what causes a cloud formation like this to occur?

Have a wonderful day! Happy SkyWatching!
