I’ve seen more than a few. This one is, shall we say, rather unique.
Here’s a good reference page from, Accu-Weather, about clouds:

Yup. That’s what it looks like to me.
I saw one something like that off in the direction of Detroit just the other day but all the wishing in the world couldn’t make it do more than rain.
FYI and comment.
A sign from above?

Did this happen last week or am I psychic. I could have SWORN I heard Rusty Humphries talking about mushroom cloud over China that the government was denying.
