Lenticular Clouds

Lenticular Clouds

I saw these lenticular clouds over Mt Rainier from Olympia. The mountain wasn’t visible, but I was familiar with where it was and knew that these clouds typically form just as a frontal system is coming in … being rainy weather. And the next day it was raining. The lower clouds have a rounded form that is quite interesting in itself. And lenticular clouds are fairly common over Mt Rainier, but usually only a single lens. This was unusual.
