Supercilium, a short-lived cloud feature which appears in turbulent airflow over, and to the immediate lee of, steep mountain peaks during periods of strong mountain summit level winds, was spotted by Ann while skiing at Sugerbush. She described it as an ever changing cloud formation that once appeared as bushy brows, and then moments later transformed and mimicked distant mountains, and then subsequently looked like cobwebs. This cloud "art" was seen near Warren, Vermont, US.
