AUSTIN (KXAN) — Severe storms dumped hail up to golf ball and baseball size across parts of Central Texas Thursday evening.

Several Severe Thunderstorm Warnings were issued in the Hill Country and in the southern Austin metro. The storms also prompted changes to local high school graduation ceremonies.

Mammatus clouds look like lumps or pouches on the underside of a cloud, usually a thunderstorm’s anvil. They form when cold air sinks into dry air, forming little pockets or pouches, usually when a thunderstorm is late in development or starting to fall apart.
