Fall Streak Holes Over Tuscaloosa

I learned something new this morning on Twitter. James Span retweeted @shelley8176 photo. They are calling it Fall Streak Holes.

These are really pretty cloud formations. This is from Wikipedia:

A fallstreak hole, also known as a hole punch cloud, punch hole cloud, skypunch, canal cloud or cloud hole, is a large circular or elliptical gap that can appear in cirrocumulus or altocumulus clouds. Such holes are formed when the water temperature in the clouds is below freezing but the water has not frozen yet due to the lack of ice nucleation particles (see supercooled water). When ice crystals do form it will set off a domino effect, due to the Bergeron process, causing the water droplets around the crystals to evaporate: this leaves a large, often circular, hole in the cloud.^[1]

There were several pics on Twitter this morning.
