A friend mailed me these the other day, I just had to share them :rock: The clouds are called Mammatus clouds. They do not precede a tornado, or fortell a storm, but are formed when the air is already saturated with rain droplets and/ or ice crystals and begins to sink. The worst of the storm is usually over when these kind of clouds are seen. They are quite rare, but really beautiful. :rock:
