Tsunami wave cloud

Photographer: Mike Schaeffer, from a helicopter

Place: Panama City Beach, Florida

Date: 5th February 2012

Description: wave clouds rolling off the sea towards land, making it seem as though the codos are being hit by a giant sea wave. The phenomenon is apparently called a Kelvin–Helmholtz instability.
