Lenticular Clouds 16/3/14

Nick J took this photo of lenticular clouds to the south of Snitterfield on Sunday.

Due to SOAGCs location within the country, we do not often see lenticular clouds edge-on like this. We do contact wave from the Welsh mountains.

The clouds were dissipating as the wind conditions changed but some pilots reported weak wave and wave influence on the (admittedly weak – it is March) thermals.
