PHENOMENAL capture of these impressive clouds ********************

Thank you Marie-Claire. Usually these cumulus clouds give heavy storms and when developing in high very fast, the internal espansion produces a temperature decreases such that the little water drop of the vapor freeze and grow collecting others, then start falling and growing while falling. That's hail. It's amazing how much energy a cloudy sky contains just because of the suspended particles and then on top there is the potential energy due to electric charge.
