Happy #Thursday from the #Northland!
The final day of #August will be #warm for this time of the year. An increase in #dewpoints and a southerly #breeze is keeping it feeling like #summer.
Keep an eye to the sky as a broken line of light #showers is passing through along a #front. Some are reaching the ground (#virga) so don't expect much #rain through tonight.

Magnifiques virgae prises ce matin depuis Genève vers le nord. Il s'agit de cristaux de glace qui précipitent et "s'évaporent" (précisément subliment) dans l'air sec en dessous des nuages. Le cisaillement de vent fait qu'ils prennent la forme d'une virgule, d'où le nom de #virga.

The clouds are trying to bring us rain but it's so hot and dry, none of it is making it to the ground. #NewMexico #virga
A beautiful 13th day for us here in #iowa farmland. #cumulonimbus clouds perked up the afternoon. As the dew points are still in the 50s, we only saw #virga here. #today

A "smack" of sky jellyfish in the California sky. We would have also accepted a "swarm" or "bloom" of sky jellyfish. 🪼🪼🪼🪼🪼

The radar may look a bit busy this afternoon in the #Northland, but many of these showers are not reaching the ground due to too dry of air near the surface. That is called #virga.
Some isolated ight showers may finally reach the ground tonight, especially east of Highway 53.

So, here in #Eastpointe we are getting snow according to the radar, but in fact there's nothing reaching the ground.
