      Featured above are eye-catching, eyebrow clouds I observed from Yuen   
      Long, Hong Kong, on the morning of November 17, 2022. They’re   
      officially known as  Eyebrowed Cloud-Supercilium and result from   
      turbulence over mountain barriers, tending to form during  strong   
      winds, in the lee of steep terrain. On occasion, it seems, when a   
       mountain wave flows over a line of ridges the wave may act to   
      tumble over itself, creating these peculiar-shaped clouds.
