There is an extraordinary video on the front page of BING right now (https://www.bing.com/)
Gorgeous, multi-level lenticular clouds.
Watch it carefully. There is a multi-level stack of several lenticular (mountain wave) clouds, reflecting the complex structure of moisture approaching the mountain.
You can see how turbulent the lower portion of the lenticular cloud stack is.
Thanks to Professor Arthur Nowell for bringing this video to my attention.
