Steve: For anyone not aware, lenticular clouds are usually cover behind which a galactic spaceship sort of hides. This one was quite possibly out there in the open to give us a chance to get used to seeing them.
This Alien Sunrise Lenticular Cloud Appearing Over Mount Shasta is Unbelievable
Active NorCal, February 12, 2020
Another week goes by and another incredible lenticular cloud show appeared over Mount Shasta. It seems like these have been happening a lot lately!
For anyone who doesn’t know, Mount Shasta is well-known to marvel onlookers with a lenticular cloud show every now and again, and seeing the beautiful sight never gets old. Many times a group of lenticular clouds will gather around the mountain, which is stunning in its own right, but this morning we witnessed a small, single lenticular at sunrise that, quite frankly, looked like an alien UFO. We like to call it an Alien Sunrise.
Here’s some photos of the beautiful cloud moving around Far NorCal:
