Here you see Mount Desert Island, Maine’s largest Island, making its own weather again. When moving air encounters the mountains on MDI, it swoops up, cools down, and often condenses out water vapor that forms a crown of clouds.

Frequently, it’s pillowing cumulus clouds, such as those here, that are formed there across Blue Hill and Jericho Bays. (Image taken in Brooklin, Maine, on April 21, 2024.)
