AWESOME CLOUD FORMATIONS

These 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.

These are some of the coolest clouds I've ever seen I would love to have them painted on my ceiling. Thanks jorn
