The contrails were developing into cirrocumulus castellanus in lines. There
was also altocumulus lenticularlis going to altocumulus floccus. There were
virga trails and cirrus s****atus everywhere!

I was saying 'thunder risk' this afternoon.... keep your eyes open Jimmy.

My daughter spotted them this morning and told me that "they looked like
feathers" which is a pretty good description from a 5 year old.. they were
contrails gone to patchy cirrus.

Later on the day there was a whole mixed bag of middle / upper level cloud
including the big patch of Ci sp that the webcam caught - it all seems to
have, erm, evaporated again.

Are one of those what's referred to as 'mares tales' (as in a contrail
that
has thinned out and gone very whispy)?

Oh, and I like this 'thunder risk' you mention 80)
