SFL Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Can you please help me with the IDs for the following? I think the first one might be lenticularis. Am I correct? Any other names I can add? What are the 2nd and the 3rd one? Thanks in advance. Sung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Rooney Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Looks to me like cumulonimbus on top and altocumulus lenticularis in the bottom two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell Watkins Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 They all look like variants of lenticular clouds to me. But IANAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The bottom two" means #2 and #3, no? It's hard to be positive about IDing clouds because they are always morphing from one type into another.

SFL Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 Hi Ed & Russell I trawled through internet images today. As Ed suggested earlier, the bottom two look like altocumulus lentilcularis. Thanks Sung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
