Travelling in a bus through the Rocky Mountains in Colorado I saw these cloud formations. I’ve never seen anything like these before. This was taken around midday on a Summer’s day in the mountains. There was little precipitation or electrical activity, but the shape of the cloud base was very unusual.
Any ideas?

Hi
Very dark clounds, and monsoon type season i saw in this picture. Very difficult for air pilots to fly air plane in this type of clouds or monsoon season.

Hi,
Wow, wonderful clouds. Yah! you are correct with that centennial 🙂
I saw clouds identical to these while coming into Port Augusta trying to beat a cold front. So, they are certainly pre frontal. Not sure what you would call them. Cumulo something or other!
