A cloud that looks like a UFO or vice versa?

An eyewitness claims: 

If I'm right, we had a pretty rare sight in Florence, South Carolina. It looks like lenticular clouds, which are rarely found on the coastal plain away from the mountains, where they are more common. If I'm wrong, they still look cool! It's interesting to find out if this is the case.

Original news

Date of sighting: April 15, 2023

Location of sighting: Florence, South Carolina, USA

Source: Twitter 

On many occasions UFOs are reported to become gradually engulfed in a vapor cloud. The fully developed cloud looks like any other cloud in the sky and affords the UFO with a very convenient hiding place. Sure people are skeptical today, but UFO reports have stated in the past that the UFO was seen creating a cloud, either around it or behind it. A fact is a fact. These UFOs can create the cloud within their energy shields to keep most of the smoke from blowing away, however some are so big, some smoke escapes causing a long thing trail behind them as seen in one of the below Twitter photos.
