A local man spotted UFO- shaped clouds while walking in Stockbridge this morning.
Grant Hudson was walking on Yew Trees Lane at 8am today when he spotted the two giant clouds over the north of the city which he thought looked very similar to an alien invasion force.
Mr Hudson said:
“I thought they were weird and looked like flying saucers. There were two that I could see. I often take photos on my iPhone and compile them into books and these are a part of a set I sell on my website.”

After sharing these unusual photos on social media, people took to the comment section and jokingly wrote that it was an alien invasion force while others expressed their admiration for Mr Hudson’s rare capture.
These strange cloud formations are called “Lenticularis” and according to the Weather Channel are one of the main leading causes of UFO sightings.

These formations happen when air travels over a tall object like a mountain and the air is forced to rise over it, forcing the air to spread and dip making a UFO shape in the cloud.
