Mother of pearl clouds observed over Southern Norway at sunrise on 5th January 2005. They consist of ice particles and typically form when meteorological conditions cause local cold spots in the stratosphere. In this case they were formed in the so-called "lee waves" produced by strong westerly winds over the Norwegian mountains.
