Grand Canyon visitors were treated to a rare weather phenomenon Thursday when a dense layer of clouds filled up the 6,000-foot-deep canyon like a bathtub.
The phenomenon, known as a total cloud inversion, occurs when warm air aloft traps clouds closer to the surface of the ground. This time around the inversion trapped colder clouds lower in the atmosphere, just below the rim of the canyon, creating billowy white views for miles in all directions in the expanse below.
