I knew they existed, but I never saw them either.
Actually I only saw them in photograph from the USA, I never saw them in any photograph from Europe. Maybe they require specific weather conditions that are not possible here.

here's a nice link, for Carsten:

Not photoshopped. These are for real, no cosmetic surgery!

And yes, Mammatus coluds is the proper terminology. I had heard them referred to as mammalian clouds previously.

I think you are right Orio, There are several thousand miles of rather flat land that lie between my part of Texas and the Arctic circle (The great plains of North America). Perhaps these cluds occur in places like that, the Steppes of Russia, etc.
