If you see clouds like this just be glad that you're not under them. Somebody is getting a bad storm. I believe that these are Cumulonimbus clouds, which can reach tens of thousands of feet in altitude and produce very severe storms. The anvil shape at the top is very characteristic of these storm clouds.
The photos were taken from west of Britt Iowa, but the storm clouds (according to the weather radar) were stretching from South of Waterloo to South of Marshalltown, over 100 miles away from where I was.
The photo above is a two-frame panorama. The photo below is a nine-frame panorama and the bottom clouds photo is is a four-frame panorama. Photoshop and Photoshop Elements have a very cool feature that will automatically take overlapping images and magically stitch them together in a seamless panorama.
