Interesting flight, lucky sod. And yes, that cloud was brillant. From the south
of Adelaide, I could see it clearly as I pedalled home with the western side
being lit by the setting sun and the only cloud visible. I wish I had had a
camera.

So unusual to see such a cloud alone in a blue void.

Come to think of it, the Adelaide met chart that Mark Newton & co. make
available have had the dew point and temperature lines running roughly parallel
for the last couple of days. Can someone explain the significance of that?
