What began as a peaceful flight soon became my first encounter with Wavy Winds. Our meteorologist explained this rare phenomenon: vertical columns of air shaped by high winds rolling in waves from the day before. The turbulence was rough but manageable—until 2:39, when a sudden jolt lifted me against the seat belt. It was over in an instant, like a strike from nowhere, before settling back into the usual bumps. Reviewing four camera angles in slow motion offered no answers. It was both frightening and fascinating, a reminder of how unpredictable the skies can be.

The photos at the end of the video (captured approximately two hours after my flight) reveal cloud formations in distinct wave patterns, caused by the Wavy Winds.
