Remember, funnel clouds will appear smooth and exhibit counter-clockwise rotation while harmless low hanging clouds, known as SCUD, will appear ragged and not exhibit rotation. In rare occasions, these funnel clouds may briefly touch down. Stay alert and be prepared to move to a safe shelter if you observe a funnel cloud approaching the ground. Report funnel clouds and/or possible tornado touchdowns to local law enforcement and the National Weather Service. $$ MLB
