Great documentation and photos Dan!
In the early 1980's I witnessed one of these phenomonem in South Central Idaho. It appeared on the eastern horizion and in less than 15 minutes it was over us and gone!
No one had ever seen such a formation before.
The cloud we witnessed stretched from horizon to horizon, appeared to be approximately 1/4 mile in width and unlike the one in your photos was a very dirty black and gray.
I have looked constanlty to see or find photos of this kind of cloud formation since then.
I have to say, yours are the best I have found!
Great job!

It's Huge. Being a west coaster, we never see clouds like this. Frightening!

Great shot! fascinating cloud. I've only seen 2 of these in my life.

Thanks for looking, Norma. By the time that I noticed this cloud and got my gear loaded in the truck I had to end up driving east on 136 to get a better shot. This photo was taken out by Doc Long's place.

Thanks for looking,
Dan

Thank you for putting this picture in here.
I saw this about 6:15 this morning when I was going to work. I knew it was unusual looking and hoped you would have something on it.
