Clouds like these are very rare here. Usually we have no clouds, or some cirrus, and in summer during monsoon cumulus!

Such an unusual event there ... it's certainly photo worthy! I like seeing the edge of the cloud cover breaking up. In these parts, that's always a good sign. :)

I cannot count the number of days I have gone outside here in East Mesa and seen wall to wall blue skies. I love to see the clouds break things up now and again. Great job showing all the different cloud layers going on. It is a shame Luke cancelled the airshow this year because of the budget. Make some of the President's entourage stay home next trip to Hawaii and maybe there would be enough money for an air show.

@UVDan. I know exactly what you are talking about. Usually, when I am at home I just peek out of the window to make sure everything is normal outside, meaning blue sky. But sometimes I long for a cloud or two just for the excitement. Sometimes there are a couple small ones over the Rim, or way down toward Tucson. For that reason I look forward for the monsoon to arrive, even though it means higher humidity. For the chance to see a nice build-up of cumulonimbus and maybe some lighting, and lo and behold, maybe some rain. Yes, too bad the airshow at Luke was cancelled. I had hoped that they they might have a F-35 on static display - or even a demo flight. But they are grounded right now too!
