Beautiful Morning Glory Clouds

The Morning Glory is a very rare meteorological phenomenon. It can be observed in Northern Australia's Gulf of Carpentaria. A Morning Glory cloud is a roll cloud that can be up to 620 miles (1000 kilometers) long, 0.5 to 1.2 miles (1 to 2 kilometers) high, and can move at speeds up to 37 mph (60 km/h).
