You're not alone. IMO the shadows of the clouds have always been square. Like a black slice of Tilsiter cheese...

I don't think its the clouds... I see cloud shadows in the "shadow"......but if it is clouds, then they have the angle of the dangle wrong relative to the clouds and sun:)

It appears to be a function of High clouds and sun angle.



My recommendation is to not let the high cirrus cast shadows and see if that fixes it.

The "shadows" ahead of the wings when sitting on the runway facing the sun are also still with us.
