海で曇りだった。

today's beach stay was cut short by goose bumps and stand up arm hairs due to large grey cloud blocking the sun.

kevin swam anyway.

i did a lot of cloud watching.


here's some info on clouds:

clouds are very tiny droplets of water of ice crystal that can float in the air. (as you know, all water is made up of solid, liquid or gas. all types of precipitation and clouds are made up of one (or more) or these kinds of states. water as a gas is called vapor. humidity indicates how much moisture(vapor) is in the air.)



if the tiny droplets or water crystals are scatted and light is shone trough, the could appears white. if the cloud is thick, the light cannot get through and it appears grey. shadows may also add a grey or multi-colored look.



clouds move by the wind. (duh)



fog is formed from warm air is being cooled over a cooler surface.



too be continued...got to get ready for work.
