Mult-Level Clouds Over Woodbridge, NJ





The clouds on this day in early September 2009 were particularly interesting and beautiful. The clouds that were present on this day were found at three different levels in the atmosphere: low, middle and high. High cirrus clouds raced across the sky along with mid-level altocumulus and low-level cumulus. It was a great day. Photos were taken with a cell phone camera which limited the quality of these photos.

These cloud photographs were taken on a day with strong instability as high pressure and drier air moved into the Northeast. The clouds are well-developed cumulus clouds that may have produced a light shower or sprinkle. The view is to the northeast around 4 PM and taken in Hells Kitchen, Manhattan.
