CLOUDBERRY

This article appears in Volume V06, Page 559 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CLI-COM
CLOUDBERRY , Rubus Chamaemorus, a low-growing creeping herbaceous plant, with
stem
  not prickly, and with simple obtusely lobed leaves and 'solitary
white
 
flowers
 , resembling those of the
blackberry
 , but largerone inch across,and with stamens and pistils on different plants. The orange-yellow fruit is about half an inch
long
  and consists of a few large drupes with a pleasant flavour. The plant occurs in the mountainous parts of
Great
  Britain, and is widely distributed through the more northerly portions of both hemispheres. In northern Denmark and
Sweden
  the fruit is gathered in large quantities and sold in the markets.
CLOUD-BURST, a sudden and violent
storm
  of rain. The name probably originated from the
idea
  that the clouds were solid masses full of water that occasionally burst with disastrous results. A whirlwind passing over the sea sometimes carries the water upwards in a whirling vortex; passing over the land its motion is checked and a deluge of water falls. Occasionally on high lands far from the sea violent storms occur, with rain that seems to descend in sheets, sweeping away bridges and culverts and tearing up roads and streets, being due to
great
  and rapid condensation and vortical whirling of the resulting heavy clouds
(see METEOROLOGY).
