What’s A Lenticular Cloud Doing Here?

They are usually found high in the mountains and look like UFOs

Driving home from food pick up we kept seeing seein the cloud and  trying to get to a place to photograph it without power lines. Wouldn’t you know it the best shot was in front of our house!  Second best by the high school a few blocks away

“Lenticular clouds (Latin: Lenticularis lentil-shaped, from lenticula lentil) are stationary clouds that form mostly in the troposphere, typically in perpendicular alignment to the wind direction. They are often comparable in appearance to a lens or saucer. Nacreous clouds that form in the lower stratosphere sometimes have lenticular shapes.”  Wikipedia
