On Saturday the 22. august 2026 I drove in blue sky and sunshine from my home in Melby 3 km to Liseleje Beach to swim.
When I arrived on Liseleje beach at 3.25 pm I saw I horizon of Kattegat Sea a build up of a big Cumulus sky in direction north-west.
Here in august this phenomenon is common caused to high temperature in the sea and close to land. The air over the sea is warm and will rise upwards. This rising will cool the atmosphere and create a sky founded of crystals with bounded water. This sky formation is called Cumulus cloud (Cumulus congestus cloud), which is flat on bottom with a big vertical extend. If this bottom is sharp the clouds will develops.
And this is what happens from 3.25 pm until 4 pm this Saturday 22. august 2026:
The wind moves from west to east.
In this article my focus is to visualize to you the beauty on nature with all colors in sky, sea and dunes with the following theme:
“Nature is her paint and brush on life’s giant canvas”.
After I swimmed I observed the sky, sea and dunes in directions north, north-west and east and this is what I observed within 30 minutes from 3.25 pm – 4 pm:
