Funnel clouds spotted from several parts of the Valley
Reports were pouring in of a funnel cloud that was spotted in the skies above the Valley from viewers in different areas.

A funnel cloud entranced many in the Valley, as reports poured in of viewers having seen it in the skies from different areas.

A funnel cloud is a rotating funnel-shaped cloud and differs from a tornado because it has not touched down, according to the NWS.

ABC30 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Musso saw it at 4:30 p.m. above Fresno.

He says it was a cold-air funnel cloud, quite normal in weather conditions such as these.

Several ABC30 viewers sent in photos of the funnel cloud they spotted - from places such as Hanford...

The location of the funnel cloud was above Highway 43 near Excelsior.
