The sky before the storm

These photos were taken Monday late afternoon just ahead of the snow/sleet/ice storm we are now in the middle of.

It was kind of like watching waves on a beach. They just kept rolling by.

But then they started to stack up.

I don’t know what kind of clouds they were but they must have a name. Anybody know?

Lynne,  I think they are mackeral clouds which indicate moisture.  Hope your ice storm isn’t too bad!

My sister speaks! Hey Bigsis, how did you know that? I looked them up and that’s exactly what they are!

Beautiful clouds… but the results were definitely chilling…. http://4thislife.blogspot.com/2011/02/cloak-of-winter.html

Margaret, no kidding! I am still chipping the ice off my front steps!

Hah! my word verification is “hospital” which I could have ended up in after trying to get rid of all this ice! smile

I think I would rather have the very high winds and rain we are experiencing today rather than an ice storm.  I have seen enough ice, frost and snow for this winter.  I hope your storm is not too severe.

Joyce, it wasn’t too bad. At least not as bad as some other places. I don’t like the ice!!
