SAN ANTONIO – A stunning, mushroom-shaped cloud was spotted in the San Antonio area as the sun was setting on Saturday and KSAT viewers were quick to capture it!
According to KSAT Meteorologist Sarah Spivey, the cloud is known as a “cumulonimbus” and happened after a cold front wiped away the humidity and moved through the Alamo City.
As to how the cloud formed, Meteorologist Sarah Spivey breaks it all down in the video below:
