Maynard Mammatus

Mammatus-like clouds roil across the northeast sky as seen in this image from State Highway 150, about .25-mile south of County Highway C33 and about one mile west of Maynard, Iowa in Fayette County. Photo taken at 4:30 PM, Saturday, May 19, 2012. Nothing came of this sometimes severe weather display, unlike the situation here 44 years ago. On May 15, 1968, Maynard suffered a serious hit from an F5 twister, killing two of its residents.
