On a rainy Thursday afternoon, a strange black donut-shaped cloud was spotted hovering over the Victoria Bridge near downtown Montreal, leaving many of us wondering, "What the heck was that?"

A video, sent in by one of our readers, shows the black cloud eerily stationed above the city, looking very ominous.

The Journal de Montréal interviewed a meteorologist who told them he hadn't seen anything like it before. He's quoted as saying the black cloud could've been related to a rare weather phenomenon caused by dust or pollution from the ground.

It also could've been connected to a movie shoot happening at the nearby MELS Studios.

Whatever caused the black cloud, it was certainly weird. We're just glad it was seemingly harmless and not a portal to another dimension!
