Thought one or two people here might like this:
Lenticular cloud forming over MK tonight.
One of our telescope operators alerted me about it. I don't know if the video will be easily available tomorrow so captured it. The cloud is still forming and might look quite interesting later on. Already there looks as though there's another lenticular cloud forming.
Summit winds aren't ridiculously high which is what's normally needed for something like this, but they are very constant at around 30-35 mph so maybe that's a factor. There's a nice view of the sunrise, then sunset including the MK shadow. Anyway, I captured the video from here:
