The mammmatus clouds appearance appears to have smooth, round puffs hanging from its under side. They are most often associated with the anvil cloud (they are clouds that can form into super cells resulting in tornados) and also serve thunderstorms!!!

Mammatus, also known as mammatocumulus (meaning "mammary cloud" or "breast cloud"), is a meteorological term applied to a cellular pattern of pouches hanging underneath the base of a cloud.

Mammatus are most often associated with the anvil cloud and also severe thunderstorms. They often extend from the base of a cumulonimbus(cloud), but may also be found under altocumulus, altostratus, stratocumulus, and cirrus clouds, as well as volcanic ash clouds.

Mammatus may appear as smooth, ragged or lumpy lobes and may be opaque or translucent.
