Mammatus Clouds
Nature March 29th, 2010
The clouds are called Mammatus clouds! They do not precede a tornado, or foretell 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.
