Skywatch Friday - all I could say was WOW....
I have never seen a sky like this in my life. I took these photos around 6:30 am on Wednesday morning. It turned into a gorgeous day with little to no humidity. I am sure someone will tell me what sort of cloud this was. I couldn't get over how large that cloud cover was, and how clear it was to the north of this cloud cover.

i just love unusual cloud formations. and, the color is amazing too.
have a fab weekend!
Beautiful shots! How did I miss these? I must drink my first cup of coffee earlier so I am more awake! ;-)
I wish I could help you with the name of the formation, but I have no clue ... however MY response is just like yours and Erin's ... WOW! Stunning views ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
My best guess is that these would be classified as altocumulus stratiformis. I love it when they get textured like that, especially at sunrise and sunset, makes for an amazing show!! Great captures!
WOW, the are opening the Sky, nice!!!!!
Have a nice SWF
Oh WOW, those are some awesome clouds.
Great capture!!
Happy SWF
Wow, that's positively biblical!! Watch for chariots issuing forth!!
Hi Gill, It's good to hear from you again. It's been awhile since I've visited also. Glad your move to the country happened. I'm envious. I'd LOVE to live in the country. Sounds like you all are doing alot of renovating....
Have a great day/week.
Hugs,
Betsy
P.S. Gorgeous sky pictures!!!
Great sky shots. I'm always taking photos of the sky, and came across your blog from the Sky Watchers blog (one of these days I will join). It is nice to meet another Canadian blogger.
Wow, it looks like a colorful wave. Nice captures.

Looks like you had a cool front go through. Be nice to have one of those here in Texas. It has been over or near 100 degrees for weeks (months).
These are wonderful pictures of this cloud. Yet they look scary too.
Great and a bit spooky.

Those are wonderful clouds. Looks like some heavenly hand is pulling the covers over you.
Fabulous clouds for your skywatch!
Loved every one of them.
Also appreciated the post about vinegar, quite a few of those tips were new to me, thanks.
These are very impressive pictures. It must have been great to see the colors change.
Enjoy your weekend!
Wow! Ominous!
Wow, what an amazing bank of clouds! Looks kinda like a frontal boundary?
And we had no idea what was to come the following night!
I enjoyed reading the comments as much as seeing the photos. Great capture of an awesome event.
