Shelf Clouds?
Saw this very strange, scary looking sky formation while on my way home from a short day trip last Wednesday. I have a number of shots of it and it got stranger looking by the minure as I drove farther northwest on Route 480. At first the dark area looked a little bit like the funnel cloud of a tornado. :-) It didn't start to dissipate until I turned right off 480 and headed east. Earlier in the day, the sky had been perfectly blue with only the occasional fluffy white cloud. But by the time I saw this, the sky was completely white.
The closest thing I can find like this to compare it to are shelf clouds. But that's debatable.
