Vapour Trails or Clouds? Posted on November 11, 2022 by Mama Cormier …which do you think it is? On my walk yesterday I looked up and saw what I thought was a vapour trail. Upon closer inspection I wondered if it could be clouds or maybe it’s both. Where do you stand? Share this:PrintTwitterFacebookPinterestRedditEmailLike this:Like Loading...
Vapor trails dispersing into clouds. I’ve watched this so many times from when my grandma lived near a military base. LikeLiked by 2 people Reply ↓

Nice one. They are contrails. These are produced by the aircraft engine exhaust. LikeLiked by 1 person Reply ↓

I think you’re right. Some look like they’ve gone through a cloud.
