An early morning over FL featured a sky of altocumulus clouds. The species these altocumulus clouds are stratiformis, reflecting their spatial extent across the sky. Often times this happens in advance of a cold front, with the clouds continue to spread across the sky and thicken. While there’s no precipitation associated with these clouds, they can be a sign of some to come.
