Weather Word of the Day: Mammatus Clouds

Image
By: Ryan Fannock 11/14/19 Weather word of the day:  Mammatus clouds What are mammatus clouds? They were first described all the way back in 1894 by William Clement Ley. They are pouches hanging underneath the base of a cloud. You'll see them occasionally attached to cumulonimbus rain clouds; especially after a tornado rolls through an area. We've even seen them in Pennsylvania after severe storms moved through. My first experience seeing these clouds was in Tamaqua after a severe, tornado warned cell meandered across Eastern Schuylkill County. The name mammatus is derived from Latin; it means udder or breast.  Sponsor:
