AstronomyUkraine Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I was checking the weather to see what my prospects are for imaging tonight. They are not good, so I scrolled over to the UK to check their chances tonight, and couldn't believe what I saw. This is a screenshot taken at 6pm UK time from WunderMap. It's the strangest cloud formation I have ever seen. Brian 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carastro Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 All the clouds have gravitated to the land mass and none in the seas around. Only very N Wales and tip of Cornwall free of clouds. Although we get a lot of cloud here that is a bit unusual. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carole It looks like the clouds have been placed deliberately over the UK. 😀 Brian 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ribuck Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Perfectly normal - Brian did you not know that the uk land mass sits on a special mantle that contains a rare type of metal called CloudusMagnetus and is usually strongest in the dark winter months. It's effects are easily observable through telescopes and often results in a human condition called HumanusPeedOffus and often manifesting itself in frowning of the face, shaking fists skyward and annoyed rants often including expletives 🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
