Looks like altocumulus castellanus. Often a sign of some disturbed weather on the way. I usually associate them with summer thunderstorms after a hot day.

Y'all may already know this book.
We used to have it at my old work:
Cloudspotter's Guide. Maybe you are members of the Cloud Appreciation Society.
