A lenticular cloud at sunset over southern Alberta, Canada. The clouds often accompany strong "chinook" winds on the lea side of the Canadian Rockies. These dry, warm 'snow-eater' winds can abruptly melt as much as a foot of snow in one day, rapidly raising temperatures as much as 40°C (75°F).

Altocumulus lenticularis duplicatus, also known as 'pile d'assiettes', forms when stable, moist air flows over a large obstacle such as a mountain, creating waves that cause the clouds to form at the crests. In this classic example, there are multiple, stacked layers of these lens-shaped clouds, spotted over Torres Del Paine National Park, Patagonia, Chile.
