Cumulus congestus – Towering cumulus.


Cumulus congestus to cumulonimbus.

Cumulonimbus approaching the troposphere (fuzzy top).
Within a 5 minute period, these cumulus cloud clusters transitioned to towering cumulus (cumulus congestus) and then grew into a large cumulonimbus cloud mass that produced lightning and rain. They formed so quickly that they dissipated within another 10 minutes.

Along the banks of our backyard pond. There’s actually two turtles here. Known locally as Florida cooter or river cooter. These two are about football sized (American football).

Rainy day thoughts…

After such a dry winter and spring, we’re visited by another rainy day here in NE Florida. No complaints here and I’m sure the geese are happy too!
Happy Wednesday Morning! Today’s image has almost nothing to do with a Wednesday, or the morning – it’s just a fun shot taken on a Wednesday!

Enjoy your day (and evening)!

Or maybe not…

Local pond gator doin’ his thing. He’s started to get interested in my presence.

Here’s Wally out of the pond.

Pond gators (what I call the local boys) are quite common around my neighborhood – but they are still gators, wild and unpredictable. I give these guys plenty of room and there’s usually a nice escape route available for me. It also helps to have some type of gator barrier (short seawalls work best) between you and your friend. DO NOT stand along the same shoreline of a small pond or swamp area with gators – they are super quick and can actually “climb” small obstacles.
