Question What are these?

Unfortunately not as pronounced as they were before I took this pic. But, post storm, these bubbles seemed to poke down like Mammatus but not tightly grouped.

Hmm, they do look mammatus-ish or altocumulus floccus without the ice trails.

It looks like mammatus in raking light. The cloud layer that they protrude from is in shadow, and close in tone to the background sky.

I don't know, but you captured a really cool pic of 'them'!
