A storm system as seen from looking east from the mountains to the Anza Borrego Desert. Carl shares that a strong convergence of westerly winds and warmer desert air created spectacular clouds and an abundant lift for soaring over San Diego County, California, US.

A great place for cloudspotting, as Kay and her friend, another CAS member, Helen Shorten, were adding clouds into Kay's Cloud Collector Handbook, as spotted near Tilba Tilba on the south coast of New South Wales, Australia
