COOL! On Tuesday morning, November 25th, 2003 East Hawaii was treated to an incredible Lenticular Cloud formation around 6:30am. B-97 listener and friend Gary Fujihara took this shot and even included some info:

Lenticular clouds are relatively rare phenomena, but happen several times a year on the Big Island, usually between Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea. One episode last year featured clouds that remained stationary for over 18 hours, despite winds at the summit level of over 20 m/s. Lenticular clouds are wave clouds that have a lens shape (or stack of plates). These clouds form wherever stable moist air flows over a mountain, creating a series of waves on the downwind side.

Thanks, Gary! --DC
