The weather phenomenon, squall line, was observed in Brunei last Sunday around 7.30am, stated the Brunei Darussalam Meteorological Department (BDMD) yesterday.
Squall line is a band of vigorous convective activity, often with heavy thunderstorms and strong wind. The leading edge of a squall line is often made of arcus cloud. Two common types of arcus cloud are shelf cloud and roll cloud. Shelf cloud is a supplementary feature of a cumulonimbus (thunderstorms) cloud.
