Cumulonimbus mushroom

SiriusDF

It's only a little dark tail cloud
hanging under the thunderstorm
Updrafts keep it buffeted above the ground
While the mesocyclone gyrates around
Wondering when it will hail.

Like a High Plains Drifter, that bugger of updraft fury moved Eastwards and generated copious quantities of Hail.

      Swamp coolers only inspire dread when you're replacing some minor parts...motor, belt, fan bearings and refreshing the scum reservoir...in the afternoon sun atop a roof with short pants.
