There's a bit too much low cloud here for the wave pattern to be
identified 'from the bottom up'. The wavelength is noticeably shorter
in the south of the country, particularly SW Ireland, than further
north. Presumably this is due to differences in the vertical
temperature profile.

It looks like an enlarged mackerel sky seen from above.
Beautiful picture.
