DISCUSSION: As a potent low-pressure system pushed through parts of Western Europe, very strong storms moved through various parts of Germany. The image attached in the graphic below depicts an absolutely textbook example of an arcus cloud (i.e., a low, horizontal cloud formation associated with the leading edge of thunderstorm outflow) which formed in association with an intense thunderstorm which had been moving over areas in and around Westerholt, Germany! Note how you can see the heavy rainshafts in the background portion of the image which can be denoted by the regions of lower visibility just beneath the darker cloud-base which wraps around the periphery of the thunderstorm in view!
