In Canada the Prairies are meant to be where it's at when it comes to sky. Prairie skies even made it into the CBC Seven Wonders of Canada list. Here in Calgary we are where the Prairies meet the mountains and I have to say we get some amazing skies. This evening on the way home I was very excited to see what I think is my first mammatus cloud!


Ever since reading The Cloudspotter's Guide last year I'd been fascinated by these clouds. What red-blooded amateur meteorologist wouldn't.
