Funnel cloud in Tacoma

At around 8:00 this morning I was enjoying the sunrise from my house in Tacoma. I was looking out my back window towards Mount Rainier and I noticed under a cloud formation what looked like fingers forming under it.The fingers started to rotate in a clockwise direction and started to condense into the funnel shape in the picture. The whole process took about five minutes to develop. Pretty Cool!!

Not a true funnel cloud, really. Just upper level random winds moving the clouds. Very common. You know its a funnel cloud when it is VERY defined and organized (and comes after you, jk/lol) A real funnel cloud looks like the thing in your drain.
