Beautiful cloud, John!
Looks like a great, white cauliflower or a bomb explosion in the air!
Hope you are keeping cool up at the Lockyer Valley, Queensland, near Toowoomba. Sounds like you are still having record-hot temperatures up there at the moment or 38 degrees plus. I live in Canberra, the capital further south(430,000 people), which had record-breaking heat this year in January, with 41.60 degrees being recorded on January 16th! Just like you this summer, dramatic storms built up there every afternoon, which provided some much needed cooler relief in the evenings. Got some good storm clouds from my in aged care work-place, the last one I posted up for you to see on this cloud website last month. Glad temperatures are much cooler now in Canberra with warm, sunny days and cooler nights. From Rebecca Hill, Canberra, Australia
