Wall cloud

Sounds made up. My kids saw a unicorn cloud this weekend....

A shelf cloud usually appears on the leading edge of a storm, and a wall cloud will usually be at the rear of the storm.

Maybe you know... A friend of mine took this in Florida last week. What kind of cloud is this, other than a scary one? Lol.

Typical Florida afternoon cloud?

If you’re talking about the people walking by that guy in the hurricane, I can only imagine standing out there all day would make anyone sway?

You think they stand out there all day?

Not quite that bad. I did see plenty of amazing storms there though.

Ppl always called them wall clouds around here. Probably because they look like a wall of the storm.

But wall clouds actually lower out of the storm and are usually where tornadoes form.

My BIL used to manage an estate on the water in Palm Beach. He had his own house on the estate. We used to visit him in the summer, and I enjoyed sitting on the seawall watching storms out at sea.

Once, I saw two waterspouts under the same squall line.

I used to like standing on my carport watching the lighting. Or while driving, watching storms in multiple locations off in the distance. Very cool.

The storm was maybe a half mile out. The water spouts were maybe a quarter mile apart from each other.

No camera, ticked me off.

I meant the estate was "in the water"

From our farm we can watch lightning storms to the north 50+ miles away.

Oops.

Storms out west can be fierce. I saw some bad ones in Texas and New Mexico.

I wish we had a better view of the storms from the southwest but lots of trees and hills on that side of the property.

Those storms can sneak up on you on my property. Usually hear them before you see them.
