It looks like there was a “snake”-like cloud around 4 p.m. on 1/19.

This really does look like a snake
Since this is the Year of the Snake, maybe that’s why a snake-like cloud appeared. It was apparently in the northeast direction. They sent us the photo with the wish: “It seems to be a lucky cloud. Since it’s the Year of the Snake, I hope it will be a peaceful and wonderful year for the whole world!”
By the way, a dragon cloud appeared in February last year

Last year was the Year of the Dragon, after all.

This one was also seen toward the northeast, from along Sakegura-dori in front of Imazu Junior High School. It was around 4:30 p.m. It seems like it may have been the same cloud.
Quite a few people also saw it on X〜

Maybe many of you saw the same cloud too. Here’s hoping it’s a sign of good things to come〜〜
