The meteorologist, Mr. Gilmore, reminded people that not all clouds represent impending doom even though they may look that way. He said that the mass did not necessarily mean that a massive storm was coming even though it looked like impending doom was near. To the contrary, he said that the way that the clouds were fractured look like the storm may have been weakening instead of strengthening. Gilmore went on to explain that the fierceness of the cloud mass was probably the amount of light that was hitting the clouds. The clouds in the background were darker due to the heavy rain.

Even if the cloud mass didn't mean anything, it still made for an interesting set of pictures. Take a moment to get a good look and tell everyone you know about it. See what they have to say about the way it looks to them.
