WOW is all I can say. It looked like a sky flood.
Perhaps this is GOD's warning or something. Definately weird.
Some of those pics actually looked like they had faces in them. Like on I think pic 3 it looked like a wolf.

Nice find!

now thats Nutz!

i see faces in them too, but i dunno if its just myself projecting.

very nice find, this is indeed something to keep in mind, in case we have some wild something happen..

Its interesting to see this story on ATS because i'm actually from Iowa and got the opportunity to witness this weather-phenomenon first hand. It was breath taking none the less and i actually played disc golf while it was going on.

And of course being an ATS fan Haarp did come to mind. The're saying that something like this won't happen for a very long time. If it does happen again relatively soon then there are grounds to speculate.

Cloud Dreams

Cool-looking, but I see similar effects (and much weirder ones) quite often in western Nevada.

A rare treat for Iowans though, so yay Iowa!

If you want to see more, drive west.

That was neat. I do have to wonder exactly what caused it though.

I dont think I could say it was caused by Harrp or such.
But the were very lovely cloud formation.
I like most all of the events that mother natucher can offer from time to time, so long as they are not destructive.

I looked into this type of cloud pattern recently, and believe the cloud phenomenon is called (strangly enough) "Gravity Waves".

The thing is none of those images from the original poster's link seemed to have any of those ripples with crests and troughs like they do on the wiki page ( a fingerprint-like gravity wave feature). By the sounds of it gravity waves form on already exsisting cloud formation as opposed to being an actual cloud. I could be completely mistaken though!



Pretty spectacular!

Very cool cloud formations, and although rare in some parts of the world, are more common in other parts. I've seen them here in eastern Ontario and harp isn't any where near. Read the article people, everything you need to know about their formation is there, or found with a quick google search. Nothing nefarious at all.
