Description
The banded altostratus appeared above our campsite on the large island on Bass Lake, Restoule Provincial Park in August 1993. The gravity waves in the moisture revealed the southwesterly winds. These winds were part of the larger warm conveyor belt from the warmer and more humid Gulf of Mexico. The sunset after supper was an open book for someone who enjoyed reading the sky. The weather was going to deteriorate in the next day or so. Summer systems tend to move slower with the weaker jet stream so the timing of the arrival of the precipitation was more of a challenge to nail down. The warm frontal rain was also more likely to be minimal anyway. The convective showers and thunderstorms were more likely to be significant and even those patterns that deliver most of the summertime precipitation are hit and miss.
It all didn't matter as our campsite was high and dry and we were prepared to have fun. Some heavy rain would make the paddling a bit easier in the creek while we foraged for memories.

Thank you Sunny... for reading right to the end. These painting really do record my artistic pilgrimage from almost the beginning. I do not have my public school stuff:>)
