I reduced and zipped up those files

You can find the individual ones named reduced_* in http://bobbutts.mine.nu/images/

From digging around it appears that the feature is a rotating wall cloud.. Although much less impressive than most of the ones I saw on the net. Also according to what I read Mesocyclones are based on radar presentation, not ground observations, so doubtful that's the term I want.
