☁️ Asperitas clouds are looming in the Kentucky sky.⁠ ⁠ The word "asperitas" is rooted in Latin, as it means "to make rough." The name stems from the turbulent and choppy undersides of the cloud formations. ⁠ Researchers are still working to learn exactly how these clouds form, but one theory is that these clouds form near or in the wake of thunderstorms ⁠ ⁠ _____⁠ ⁠ 📸: Photo source: u/naveedflix ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #science #cloud #asperatus #asperatusclouds #nature #sky #clouds
