The trademark of a strong cumulonimbus cloud is the overshooting top, a "cauliflower-like" cloud structure extending above the anvil of the storm like a dome. Overshooting tops develop on thunderstorms that have powerful updrafts and they typically develop on Cumulonimbus capillatus incus, as spotted here near Sherman, Illinois, US.

My absolute favourite photo on CAS. AWESOME.
On the summit of Wales’ highest mountain, there is a plaque. It reads: Wanderer, stop a while . Consider the wonderous works of God, and of your short passage on this Earth.
Quite.

Hi Maisie
Cool eh!I have just joined the couldappreciation socoiety, best £2 ever, ever spent!
this type of cloud is indicative of possible or likely tornado threats.Beautiful though it may be, for those who have been through tornadoes…it is a vision of awe and, yes, fear…
The presence of mammatus clouds often indicates a vigorous cumulonimbus in the vicinity. If the mammatus clouds are relatively weak, in distance, and not approaching, the threat from the storm that produced them is not likely to be very great. However, if they are large and approaching, the sky should be watched closely for the possibility of severe weather.

Very strange, very X-Files…
DODGE
