The photographer took the picture of unusual clouds-funnel in Rio de Janeiro

Brazilian artist Helio Vital did the funnel clouds in Rio de Janeiro on 7 February.

Meteorologists call the cloud of such "tubes" or tubular clouds. They are a swirl of humid air, partially separated from the storm cell. "Tuba" of the age of the earth, gets a new name — tornado.

"Despite the formidable appearance, this tube has not fallen on the earth and not caused any harm," said Vital.
