Everybody -

Just back from Canada again.

This one's got me stumped. I think this is stratocumulus lenticularlis
duplicatus as the cloud deck above it is altocumulus. Opinions please....

The ship is Hapag Lloyd's Paris Express / callsign DIHE and this vessel
crops up in sailwx all the time if you like to follow VOS. Photo was
taken at Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Couldn't disagree with Sc len. Too low for Ac len, and the
Ac layer is not lenticular anyway. There is just a hint of *two*
layers of the Sc len. Is that what you ment by "duplicatus"?.
