Awesome 'Tsunami' Shelf Cloud Over Richmond, VA - July 15, 2012

Arcus 'Shelf' Cloud Over Richmond, VA 


arcus cloud is a low, horizontal cloud formation. Roll clouds and shelf clouds are the two types of arcus clouds. A shelf cloud is usually associated with the leading edge of thunderstorm outflow; roll clouds are usually formed by outflows of cold air from sea breezes or cold fronts in the absence of thunderstorms.
