Mammatus clouds
The name "mammatus" is derived from the Latin mamma (breast), due to the shape of these clouds. These clouds can be formed in different ways but there is always one common factor: for them to develop there must be both warm, humid air and dry air at the same time. For this reason, these clouds are common in mountainous areas.
