Posted: Mon Jun 20, 2005 3:10 pmThat looks eerily like a thundercloud/head.
Re: Cloud
Posted: Mon Jun 20, 2005 7:35 pmYes, that is a Cumulonimbus cloud--they do tend to generate thunderstorms. Nice pic! Wish we had more of those around here!

Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2005 1:14 amIf you approach such a Cb with a glider, you go straight up and get sucked into the cloud. In the inside, there are winds over 200km/h and gaints hail balls. You never get out of it alive...believe me!

And I love the mountain in the backround. Rome looks like a neat place!

No, but it's what they told me during meteo class at the local soaring club. Do I really have to explain everything? ;)

Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2005 9:54 pmBeautiful!! Classic "anvil" shape, meaning it's still developing vertically, and the high-altitude winds are shearing the top off. Sometimes those beasts can fling rain and hail dozens of miles downwind... Thunderheads are beautiful to see... from the ground.
