I'm not sure I'd call it a wall cloud, I would say lowerings are common, but a wall cloud to me is a blocky lowering about half way to the ground from the cloud base. I almost want to call a wall cloud a rotating lowering in the updraft now that I've seen a few better ones this season...Lol nevermind me, there is no official definition, its just people in the US call anything a wall cloud nowadays. Yours is a definate lowering in the base, thus most (chasers) would call it a wall cloud. Good eye to catch that tho.

It's just weird to see the difference of storms in the uk and us, cause your storms can spin up randomly and produce with real low tops. Now I'm done babbling.
