    I find this case of KH to be really unique because the KH is twisting veils of cloud with wind-shear, fluctus can really be sneaky, disguised among a sea of cumulus, to huddled up in a contrail. This is why KH is one of my favourite clouds, after Asperitas clouds. (Which I hope to see some day!)

    What I find extra interesting about these fluctus formations (these were the first time i have ever saw them) is that the waves seem like they are on different floors, on an even larger wave, it is truly beautiful, Hans.

    Thank you for the information, Michael! I’m not an absolute cloud expert, so I appreciate your side of the story very well and I will find more information on the subject, good day!

    Tony, thank you for the information! I didn’t think undulatus instantly due to it looking a little bit like altocumulus, but after some research and your side of the story, pretty sure you are right, good day! :)

    Edit after a bit more research: I’ve probably pinpointed that it is altocumulus undulantus! Cirrocumulus undulantus still looks amazing, though!
