      Michael, my favorite is #71.  I haven’t seen any of this cloud formation as yet this year.  Hope you are seeing cooler temps.

      Thx Ruth. It appears Asperitas season is  Nov-Feb maybe even Mar, with Nov and Dec  showing the most visited  by Asperitas is these months. Summer heat just destroys anything coming in over it,,

      Thanks Ruth. Ive got my Adobe Lightroom back and now have to do myself what the Micro-soft/Apple/ Adobe /Canon/ Sony/Nikon etc couldn’t work out between themselves. Like, Taking Fotos of clouds isn’t tough enough..Before I forget, to all who attend to this thread, be sure to  view these Asperitas shots upside down along with  rite side up..One, the upside down perspective shows whats going on in a view that my mind can grasp, ridges, valleys, pockets etc, Two, the difference between the feet on the ground perspective  and the head on the ground perspective is so different its amazing how unbelieving my mind is in seeing the opposite  as the same. Anyway lots of late afternoon early evening  Asperitas over  2024 , well relatively. Nov was a bust and Dec has been dry also. The first part of a Pineapple Monsoon has not happened. The warm moist air is staying south coming up north into Texas…But the late afternoon casts color shifts and contrast differences in lighting because everything moves quicker the better or more churning the Asperitas is,,with an Asperitas experience in June even..and Ive finally got around to them. The Spring skies over Phoenix of 2024 seems to have been productive in Asperitas.. But, here is the last unposted photo from the Nov23 Asperitas breakout to segway into 2024 Asperitas.

      I left the palm fronds in this pic to give an idea of scale. The late in the afternoon creates lighting conditions that are fleeting at best with Asperitas rolling through.

      I love the thin swirling veils in #95, Michael. And the accompanying text as well. Very interesting, but what is a Pineapple monsoon? Can you explain?

      Hans, Your shot begs to be looked at upside down.Speaking of Pineapple, the random 3-4 months of  wet winter weather we get in Phoenix seems connected to the La Niña effect, a warming of the oceans around the  subtropics to tropics zones. The neat part is at the height  of the abnormal event, looking at the geo satellite movies of the Pacific, one could see a stream of warm wet weather originating from..Hawaii,,hence Pineapple..in a steady flow to Southern California, Arizona and northwest Mexico. The truth is. ..Ive been to pineapple fields in Hawaii..They’ve been abandoned for  new fields in Latin America.  Hey,  $1.50 for a ripe whole pineapple in Phoenix allows for a lot of upside down cake. The new thing is..pineapple spears (like pickle spears) in a jar with coconut water.  Thats like Pineapple Silk  right there let me tell you. Just like Asperitas, it should be experienced at least once in a lifetime.

      Thin swirls can be Aspirated  too. Be sure to look at this one upside down…sorry can’t seem to upload jpeg images to this site all of sudden. Im down to 69KB size so I know that ain’t the problem. Im starting to suspect AI filter making  bad calls. Larger sized jpeg have consistently been posted here…oh well…try this one..well that didn’t work either..Its time to talk to customer service.

      Many thanks Michael for your explanation. It is fun to read about that the origin being Haïti makes it a Pineapple monsoon.
      I am a bit puzzled about the Pineapple silk which you compare with Pineapple spears. Pineapple silk appears to be a fabric and might not be that tasty all be it once in a lifetime.

      Unfortunately your #99 is not visible.

      This is an old one with swirls. Let’s see whether I can upload it…

      In the name of Asperitia Goddess of  The Elvis Cloud, they’re all shook up, Mmmm HhmMmm, uh huh, Oh Yeaaa,  I am posting a 2nd shot for the same nite,,for the full Elvis Cloud experience  be sure to look at this one upside down..Ruth’s blue pockets demonstrate cloud going up, not coming down..a point Gavin made awhile back by asking has anyone ever seen it rain in an Asperitas event..It can be gentle like Ruth’s slo-roll or  like with egg whites , beat until stiff peaks form..The wind is the egg beater, it can fold the clouds up and send them rolling along or it can break the thiner  cloud layers into  truly aspirated clouds ..in any case, the clouds go up, not down. What difference in air pressure can pull up a given volume of cloud?..is there a sound created when such a wind  crosses over a field of Stratus? If  a sound was created it would be Elvis singing Im All Shook Up MmmHmmMMmm Ohh YEAAAA

      Michael, first off, I really appreciate your knowledge on Mr Asperitas.  I have been in touch with CAS regarding uploading problems.  They reported a server space issue which has been resolved.  So, an uploading we go.

      Thanks Ruth. I was notified yesterday of the server issue. Being able to post the fotos answered the issue.   So it looks like the issue was quickly resolved.  Yay!   More cloud going up below!
