- A high-based single cell Cumulonimbus shower cloud drops heavy rain from its dark updraft base in this wide-angle view. Note the difference in height of the cloud base between the updraft (straight black base) and downdraft location (lighter gray to its left), showing how the air condenses at a much lower level on the way up than where it evaporates on descent.
