The energetic stratocumulus clouds were backlit by the late afternoon sun. They were vigorous and rolling and turning over in the brisk northwesterly winds. Shafts of snow virga reached for the ground. Stratocumulus clouds have a tremendous amount of personality as they interact with the terrain and exchange heat and moisture with the ground. Individual stratocumulus clouds have an exciting story to tell indeed but it can be a complicated past with an uncertain future - more of a John D. MacDonald tale featuring a Travis McGee character than a review for the Bulletin of the Canadian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society.
We were in COVID lock-down and would be for the foreseeable future. The very good news was that I was getting at lot of time at my easel. The other good news is that I could stay safely at home and enjoy the inspiration that arrived on my doorstep.
