Something neat after all the stormy weather...
Another wonder of nature.. mammatus clouds! I've never heard of them.. have you? Is it raining where you live? After the storm, go outside and look up. You might spot a strange and beautiful formation of "mammatus clouds," which often herald the end of severe weather. They are jaw-dropping.
They form in turbulent air on the undersides of thunderstorms. Although mammatus clouds are popularly thought to signal the approach of severe weather, new research shows the opposite is true. These lumpy clouds are most often seen when storms are breaking up.
So after the next storm, go take a peek for mammatus clouds!
