Cloud streets over the Bering sea. They say that clouds are physics in the air. These formations are flowing outwards from the edge of the sea ice into the Bering Strait between Siberia and Alaska. As the cold wind from the boreal continents reached the warmer moist air of the sea (since water holds more heat than land) the encounter spun off lines or whirling air. The clouds form as the air rises and cools, condensing the moisture, while the empty patches mark where the air is dropping back. #Shakil
