Clouds First // Zack Herzer
Below: Skew-T diagram for Grand Junction, 00Z 8/28/2022, which was the closest to the time/location that this photo was taken. The clouds are likely to exist around 5900 meters because that is where the dew point and temperatures are closest. The CAPE value at this time was 366.9, so at the time the weather was slightly unstable. The clouds in this photo are probably cumulus and stratocumulus clouds, and are pretty standard for this location/time of year.
