                       An Iridescent Pileus Cloud over China

      Explanation: Yes, but how many dark clouds have a multicolored lining?   
      Pictured, behind this darker cloud, is a pileus iridescent cloud, a   
      group of water droplets that have a uniformly similar size and so   
      together diffract different colors of sunlight by different amounts.   
      The featured image was taken last month in Pu'er, Yunnan Province,   
      China. Also captured were unusual cloud ripples above the pileus cloud.   
      The formation of a rare pileus cloud capping a common cumulus cloud is   
      an indication that the lower cloud is expanding upward and might well   
      develop into a storm.
