Morning Glory Clouds

Several Australian Newspapers have mentioned the recent Morning Glory Clouds that have appeared over Burketown in Northern Queensland. These appear every year and this photograph was taken by Mick Petroff from a plane near the Gulf of Carpentaria – the full article can be viewed here

No one is quite sure what causes these clouds but Cloud Appreciation Society founder, Gavin Pretor-Pinney made a trip to see the cloud formation – you can see the article on the website here
