'Little Spinup' Cloud Twists Across Fields as Storm Threatens Lindon, Colorado
Spinning clouds were seen dancing across the landscape outside Lindon, Colorado, on July 2 after a severe weather warning was issued for the area.
The National Weather Service put in place a severe thunderstorm watch warning for the area and parts of neighboring states of Kansas and Nebraska, warning of potential hail, lightning and wind speeds of up to 70 miles per hour.
The video shows clouds swirling near the ground beneath dark clouds. Storm chaser Jen Walton, who filmed the spectacle, wrote in a Twitter post accompanying the video: “Little spinup we saw associated with a very robust updraft near Lindon.” Credit: Jen Walton via Storyful
