        MikeL, ‘or what’ sounds a bit abrupt – my apologies if it came across as such (it was late). I was just curious at the coincidence.

      hygge, I was a bit perplexed by your use of “Versus”as I try not to see one cloud better or worse than another. The physics behind the undulatus phenom is fascinating as any, so,the cloud manifested by the physics remains amazing in any regard. An example of what I’m getting at is below. Some time ago, a year, a low, heavy undulatus phenom passed overhead near work.The 1 st photo shows the “prime” of the phenom,,orderly clean, well structured, perhaps the greek ” Ionic” could be applied.

      The 2nd photo, below, was taken at the end of the phenom. The undulations are ragged disorderly and , looking closely, undulations up top and counter of each other are easily evident. The Winds are disrupting the pageant.Wind,creator and destroyer.so, maybe you can see how I first felt the use of ” versus”. With clouds as with nature, its a constant change, at least here in the upper Sonoran desert where a system can blow thru the region in 6 hrs or less. When undulations build up on top of each other and in different alignments, wow, try imagining all the different wind directions going on up there.
