Great photos! And yes, we've been having those kinds of clouds around here, too.

Thanks, :). These were taken yesterday. It has been none stop, off, and on rain here, as this area starts its fourth week of the same rain whether patterns, with stronger than normal wind gust lately. Locals just shrug.
There was also some rain that had dust in it leaving a light coating of mud on the vehicle on Saturday.
This was more than likely blown in from Spain, before the mountains, north, picked up from the high desert area and blown into the upper atmosphere.

Almost as if,they were being effected by 4th density bleed through.

Impressive and interesting, sure. "Dark energy", "mean", etc. that might just be our subjective perception of events we aren't even close to understanding.
On the other hand, if we ever get one of these....
that's another story. ;)

To coin a phrase, "The sky was angry that day." :whistle:

While not quite in Toulouse, we also had a "significant" rainfall for April here in Perth, Western Australia on the 29th;
--- Quote ---Sunday April 29, 2012
Rain fell at a steady rate in the Perth region on Saturday afternoon, bringing the first significant rainfall since December.
The rain started at 5.30pm yesterday evening, accumulating a total of 41mm, 38 of which fell in just five hours before midnight.
Slightly heavier rain fell in the nearby coastal regions, 62mm at Floreat Park and 56mm at Swanbourne. This is Swanbourne's heaviest April rainfall in 10 years.
The rain was caused by a low pressure trough laden with tropical moisture of Indian Ocean origin, which was then drawn across the state by strong upper level westerly winds. This supply of moisture was enhancing the development of a low pressure system along a cold front to the south. On Sunday afternoon this system continues to bring showers and fresh westerly winds gusting up to 40km/h.
It's a few degrees colder in the wake of this system with Perth's maximum struggling to reach 23 degrees on Sunday. By Monday the sky should start to clear again, with only a possible morning shower in the forecast. The cool airmass is expected to linger with below average maxima on Monday and Tuesday.

Nothing major quite like a tornado in Toulouse, but the timing is interesting. It's been uncharactisically dry this month, until this.
