- This storm shows the complexity of a cloud base
- W991095Z
- Warm winds drop to calm as a large, circular updraft base moves overhead. The rain foot at right carries moist, cool outflow air underneath the base and into the updrafts. Uneven condensation causes the base surface to become very choppy. The edges of the lowest parts catch skylight, revealing the great complexity of something as simple as a cloud base.
