As always as and when you see it, whether it be a particularly interesting cloud, another weather phenomena or a pivotal moment signifying Earth's journey for 2011, add them to the and who knows it may well find it's way to the blog or create an interesting debate.

Wyoming's high winds, coupled with high elevations (7400' at my home where this photo was taken) make them appear both varied and highly transient. I suspect the clouds appear different here since I'm closer to them??
