Cloud streets are parallel rows of marine stratocumulus clouds that form along the direction of wind flow. Often, the cloud street forms a series of vortices, and amongst the longest of these occurred in the wake of Jan Mayen Island, Norway, and extended for over 300 km (around 186 miles) in June 2001.
