They’re ice clouds…. Basically ice particles. They’re sometimes can be referred to as shattered sky clouds. Quite rare actually.
Here’s another one not as widespread but more dense in nature.
NOAA has been having a rough time lately. Horrible busts last winter on both the seasonal and subseasonal scales. Idk what their methodology is but it’s been failing them since the niño established.
IIRC they rely heavily on the IRI which is notoriously bad when seasonal/LF forcing components destructively interfere w/ canonical EOFs (example: strong niño in tandem with -PMM).
