Cloud over Ventnor 3 Sat 7th June -

Calling cloud experts: Were these Lenticular clouds over Ventnor?

Many thanks to Karen Bowden for sharing this photos she captured in Ventnor Park this morning just before the heavy down pour.

What type of clouds are these?
Karen is wondering whether they could be classed as Lenticular (Altocumulus lenticularis) cloud formations.

If there are any cloud experts out there who can help, do please let us know via the comments system below.

The downpour came at around 8.30am this morning in Ventnor and was a marvel to watch (from inside the house). We didn’t spot the clouds though, so are grateful to Karen for sharing this pics.
