Description
This is the sunrise from the front porch looking easterly at 05:40 am on Friday June 30th, 2017 - the last day of June. The sky was overcast cirrostratus and one could even see some subtle gravity waves in this thin, ice cloud on the eastern horizon. The broad bands of altostratus were preceded by a deformation zone at that particular level of moisture. The warm conveyor belt was spilling even more moisture across eastern Ontario. Soon there would be enough layers of moisture in the vertical that they would meld together to produce rain. The air mass was also convectively unstable as gauged by the back lit towering cumulus on the extreme eastern horizon. There would even likely be some embedded thunderstorms. The saying "red sky in morning, sailor's take warning" would apply in this case even though neither the sky or the clouds were very red.
Most people might see just the sun heralding another summer day. After appreciating the morning sky, I saw rain on the way. As it turned out, the continuous rain was not long in arriving on this last day of June. Reading the sunrise was for me something I was accustomed to do like reading the newspaper. The science and cloud patterns reveal everything that one needs to know. There is no such thing as "fake weather". All of weather is very real.
The white pines along Long Reach Lane still stood out tall against the morning light. The red cedars were also standing tall in the field. Morning radiational fog filled the valley between the forested ridges. The moisture for this fog came from the rains of Thursday. The weather had been very wet due to the sluggish climate change jet stream. The large and very persistent upper trough over eastern North America was conducive to slow moving low pressure areas and lots of rain and cloud. The farmers were having a hard time getting their soggy crops to grow.
