I was looking out the west facing window and saw the sun had gone down but left pretty colored clouds in the sky. Grabbing my phone I went outside and snapped three shots.
Clouds are something I always notice. The common clouds are cirrus, stratus, and cumulus.
The clouds this evening look like a combination of stratus and cumulus. Not that I’m any expert on the different clouds and what they mean.
Mainly, besides checking the sky to guess what weather is coming this way, I enjoy how the clouds form different shapes.
Stratocumulus clouds are patchy gray or white clouds that often have a dark honeycomb-like appearance. Clouds are thin, sometimes patchy, sheet-like clouds. They sometimes look like they’re full of ripples or are made of small grains.

These type of clouds can also be an indication of a storm and I know there is heavy rain coming this way. Hurricane Ida did not have any effect on PEI except for the rain that is forecast later this week.
