Awesome cloud formations! Those are mammatus clouds and I've always wanted to photograph them! They are a rare example of clouds in sinking air. Even though they're very ominous in appearance, mammatus clouds are harmless and do not mean that a tornado is about to form; a commonly held misconception. In fact, mammatus clouds are usually seen after the worst of a thunderstorm has passed.
Interesting ! I have never seen them up here in Ct. to my knowledge..Thanks for sharing!
