They would be hard to see at night, and I'm not sure how/if you could setect them via satellite....they are really cool though.

So why do we not have any severe thunderstorm watches posted?

Mammatus Clouds--These clouds usually form during warm months, and are formed by descending air in the cloud. Mammatus clouds are sometimes described as looking like a field of tennis balls or melons, or like female human breasts. In fact, the name "mammatus" comes from the Latin word mamma, or breast.

Mammatus Clouds are found in the cirrus anvil of strong thunderstorms and are usually a sign very strong to severe storms. It is caused when a thunderstorm is strong enough to push into the tropopause (layer of atmosphere between the troposphere and the stratosphere). This causes turbulence in the air flow of the anvil causing the mammatus clouds.

Looking at radar and satellite images, thus far everything is initiating mostly north of I-10/I-12.

Currently St Tammany and Washington parishes and all of the South Shore have no watches or warnings
