The Bryson Family Weather Page
Our son, Mark, is very interested in weather, but we all enjoy looking at weather; cloud formations, storms, lightning, etc.
We decided to share some of our favorite pictures. These were taken by members of our family and should not be shared without our permission. (Maureen Bryson, 2008).

16 Dec 2008, between Logandale, Nevada, and Mesquite, Nevada. This cloud looked huge when we first saw it, but as we got closer, it really sat nearly on the ground, and was only a few hundred feet high. The "spaceship" cloud at the front on top is called a pileus. As the wind blows over the cloud on a cold day, it freezes into this formation.
