ReplyDeleteAmazing clouds. Not seen one like that. I thought maybe it meant a tornado is potentially going to form.
ReplyDeleteGreat mammantus clouds. Some of the best I've ever seen, and with the sky so blue. Usually they are a sign of meteorological trouble.
ReplyDeleteYou were really lucky to catch these. They look otherworldly brilliant.
ReplyDeleteGreat picture of some neat clouds. I'm glad they didn't bring any bad weather to you.
ReplyDeleteYou lucky to see those clouds.
ReplyDeleteCool clouds and fun name.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful clouds, Sarah... They look so puffy... I wanna reach up and touch them!!!! Great picture!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Beautiful clouds! Guess I wouldn't have thought of cow udders, my first thought was cotton balls. But whatever, they're beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThose are neat clouds. They look like big puffs of cotton.
ReplyDeleteIs this a recent shot? Looks like it's warm there.
ReplyDeleteI love this Sarah! Those are really incredible clouds. I've never seen anything like it.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Would you believe Linda of Linda Letters just blogged about her Acer computer? Sheesh! Now I'm dying to get one even though we don't need one.
Those are some crazy clouds. Great shot!
ReplyDeleteSarah, I love clouds when they are billowy and big like those in the picture! Good job capturing them!
ReplyDeleteFantastic puffs of cloud.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. I loved growing up with my grandmother. She was the best weatherperson ever just reading the signs from the clouds or the critters on the farm. Or the trees.
ReplyDeleteWow a new meteorology term .. Sarah, I had no idea you'd expanded your language skills!

A Cows Udders...that actually made me laugh out loud!

ReplyDeleteI have always been one to gaze up at the various types of clouds but I must say I have never seen any that looked quite like that. They are really, really cool looking! Great photo and happy Skywatch Friday!
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny about them being called "mamma" clouds! Your photos are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteStunning....very dramatic!
ReplyDeleteMade me want to close my eyes and open them again to see if it had been an illusion!
Happy New Skywatching Year!
