Unusual street clouds have been spotted across Britain as the Met Office says the muggy weather is responsible for the dramatic display.
Keen weather watchers from across England were quick to share their pictures of the weather phenomenon which occurs when cooler air arrives following a period of muggy weather.
Horizontal convective rolls, more commonly known as cloud streets, form when warm air close to the ground rises to meet cooler air causing it to condense and form clouds.
This paired with a strong breeze will cause the clouds to form a linear pattern similar to that seen in a ploughed field.
These clouds can be very helpful to pilots as they are a strong indicator of the direction of airflow and air temperatures.
The clouds were pictured by BBC Weather Watchers above Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire who were quick to take snaps of the striking display.
Certainly some of our Weather Watchers have posted saying wow, look at these weird clouds and it’s great that the images are being captured and we’re able to share them with others.
Whatever the weather may be you can bet your bottom dollar that a Weather Watcher will capture it for everyone to see. Especially now with so many people having smart phones people are much more willing to take and quick picture and share it.
People are certainly fascinated by street clouds as they are very distinctive and quite impressive.
