Following one downpour earlier today at about 18.20 I caught these unusual clouds. They seem to be forming around the edge of a cell and not under it as is usual for Mamatus. Could they be a weak decaying version of wall clouds forming at the cell edge ? Other theories welcome.



and here's a closer shot

Mama decaying. Great photos.

Video of the storm took near to Gilpins Basin - 300 meters from home. 10.6Mb:
