Nacreous cloud

[Whirlwind]

There were some Nacreous (mother of pearl clouds) that were displaying yesterday evening and this morning.  Here is my attempt just before I went into work (Dingwall, Highlands). 

Very strange how it just stood out in an empty sky.

Great catch. They were mentioned on spaceweather.com. Just for a moment there I thought they might have been visible here, after seeing your location (Leicester)!

Yeah, sorry I've just recently moved up here for work.  Just stepped out the car and there it was!

I saw them hereabouts in 2018, I think it was 2nd February. I noticed an unusual afterglow to the sunset. And was aware they were seen the previous day in Scotland. 

I took this from the garden
