This video shows the moment a cold air funnel appears to form above the mountains in California.

It was seen spiralling above Palm Springs on Friday as the area experienced unusual weather phenomena - including rain.

Passerby Lacey Perez, 40, captured the moment on camera as she pulled into a truck stop in Indio, California.

Lacey, a Uber driver and freelance accounting specialist, from Orange County, was stunned when she looked up and saw the tornado in the distance.
