Wordless Wednesday ~ Dramatic Sky












♥  Thanks to my best bud for calling me and telling me to run outside with my camera!  ♥

From the Austin American Statesman.  Sunday, May 1, 2011.

The cloud formed because warm air must rise.  That upward push pierced the troposphere and bumped against the stratosphere, where the cloud, a cumulonimbus with suggestions of a cloud formation called a calvus, flattened at 50,000 feet.

At its widest, the cloud spread for possibly 25 miles.  The setting sun turned its edges into embers that people could see from San Antonio to Temple.
