APOD 2.6

In Montana a cloud appeared that looked more like either a sign of the apocalypse or a message from other begins than just typical thunderstorm clouds. However it is actually just an impressive cloud called a supercell. These storm systems center on rotating updrafts that span several miles. They also deliver torrential rain and many times tornadoes. This particular one only lasted several hours before moving on.
