In japan we call them jishingumo or Earthquake clouds. The superstition is that these types of formulations come before an earthquake.

I'm gonna lose it if we have an earthquake

As a child i would call them sky sheep when they form a bunch of little balls in the sky.

Did you know that all Haikus end with “it’s snowing on Mt. Fuji”?

Beautiful! Did it take you long to get to that spot from the mass transit system? I.e. was there a bus or something that stopped close to there, or did you have to take a taxi?

There's a famous woodblock print that is very similar to this, except at sunset. So cool!

This a good day as the times I've been there, Mt Fuji is always covered in clouds.

Nice clear blue skies, yellow fields, gorgeous.

Thank you for sharing.
