As I was driving home from work I noticed these spearheads in the sky.
These are Cirrus (cloud classification symbol: Ci) clouds which are a genus of high cloud made of ice crystals. These appear typically as delicate and wispy with white strands. Cirrus are usually formed when warm, dry air rises, causing water vapor deposition onto rocky or metallic dust particles at high altitudes. Globally, they form anywhere between 4,000 and 20,000 meters (13,000 and 66,000 feet) above sea level, with the higher elevations usually in the tropics and the lower elevations in more polar regions.
