Transcription: Although this video doesn't show you any lenticular clouds, it does show you how they can form. Notice how it looks like there's smoke rising from these mountains. Well, obviously it's not smoke, it's simply condensation. A pocket of low pressure is sitting on top of these mountains, and air from the mountains expands to reach that low pressure, and of course when air expands it cools down, condensing out some of the water. That's how lenticular clouds form.
