Roll Cloud Over Wisconsin
This is a roll cloud, a rare type of arcus cloud. It forms when a downdraft from an advancing storm front pushes moist, warm air upwards, causing it to cool and condense into a cloud. These clouds can stretch for long distances, sometimes with air circulating along their horizontal axis. This particular one was seen over Wisconsin.
