NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Mammatus Clouds Over Mexico” is copyrighted by Raymundo Aguirre. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Mammatus clouds, named for their pouch-like shapes, hang over Mexico. Unlike typical clouds with flat bottoms, these form when pockets of cold, moisture-laden air sink into drier air, evaporating as they fall. They often appear in turbulent air near severe thunderstorms.
