Description
The cold and unstable air mass was producing very vigourous snow flurries. The snow even accumulated at least 2 centimetres. There was a large towering cumulus to the west which provided the backdrop to this convective sky. The cloud had some real structure to it that made me think of a severe thunderstorm.
The cumulus was backlit by the sun that was getting low over the western horizon. Clouds that are illuminated from the back are darker in their centres than at their edges. If the piece of cloud is especially thin and fragmented the entire cloud might appear relatively bright. Close examination of those clouds will indicate they are still a bit darker where the cloud is the most optically thick. Shafts of snow were falling from the larger towering cumulus further to the west. I had planned on barbecuing outside as a tribute to the approaching warmer weather but had decided against it with the snow on the ground.

Good morning and thank you Sunny... In chilly April the skies were bringing me a lot of convective snow flurries... and I was thankful for that. I used all of my colours of blue oils. I treasure your ongoing support my friend. Thank you.
