Tornado Like saturated Inflows

Unread post by Tornado Tim »

Took this heading back home from Auckland just before Huntly on 2014/04/19 @ 11.55 AM (in a bunch of traffic).

Looks Wall cloud/Tornado like, but it was just infact just saturated inflow from a band of showers moving in at the time. I have come across these quite a bit. Very misleading to the untrained eye.
