what happened to the cotton ball shapped clouds we used to have

I have no idea! Good question! I am 45 years old, and i always look at the sky and marvel at its beauty. I have never seen clouds perfectly spaced. The pic doesnt really capture the way they were "rolled looking" almost like they were hollow tunnels, or like a wave closing in on a surfer.. pipe-like. Also, more than once this week the forecast was sunny, but these hazy clouds would boanket the sky amd then suddenly lift. Almost looked like it wanted to rain. The air had the "after the rain" smell to it too, but no rain fell...
