Someone sent me this link to some terrific pix on clouds. Check out
the other links as well.
Feel free to pass it on.
Jorn Olsen works for the Dutton-Lainson Co. in Hastings, Nebraska,
and lives by Heartwell Park next to Hastings College. The other
night, probably just after the big storm hit, he took these photos
and sent them to UNL which, then, posted them to the following URL.
The stadium lights are at the Hastings College stadium just east of
his home.
The clouds are called Mammatus clouds and there's a link on this URL
that tells about them. 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.

so THAT's what they call them. I see them about 10 times a summer (and just
the other day when a cold front moved through. We always just called 'em
Tortolini clouds.
