High cirrus

03/30/12, 2 pm, looking west

These high whippy cirrus clouds covered the sky most of this day although later in the afternoon it was overcast. When you see cirrus there are winds up there and some of those were gusting around down low also. This was a nice spring day of moderate temperatures (high 60's) and soft breezes. March seems to be going out like a lamb.

Pale cumulus in a pale sky

After the storms of the previous day, the weather seemed exhausted. These little cumulus puffs wafted through the almost noon sky. March came in like a lamb in central Virginia.
