On August 10th, 2007 we witnessed a classic shelf cloud formation move over Craney Island across the Elizabeth River into Norfolk, Va. This storm was part of a system that created numerous severe thunderstorm warnings across southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina. These storms brought and end to a week that saw 5 straight days of heat warnings with heat indexes topping 105F degrees every afternoon. Below are some images and a video clip of the storm system that was pushed ahead of a cold front that broke this oppressive heat.

american weather forcasts are very accurate

I remember this day it was scary my grandad and me hid in the basement
-
Shelf clouds are associated with descending cold air, wall clouds are associated with rising air and updrafts, that's why wall clouds can often spawn tornadoes
-
A gustnado looks like a tornado, but it actually has more in common with a dust devil. They can form when a strong updraft begins to rotate, but doesn't connect with the cloud base. Can still produce impressive winds, but not as powerful as a true tornado can get
