Atmospherics, for purposes of this thread, are not strictly "clouds" in the normal white fluffy stereotypes, but are more plays of wind, light and moisture in the atmosphere.

Rays of light and dark are sometimes seen beaming down from holes in cloud. In atmospheric optics these are called crepuscular rays. I recently learned a much better name: God rays. Here are God rays directed at a sparsely populated wide expanse of nature (characteristics of areas referred to as God's country) in Montana.
Here is another example of crepuscular rays which it seems to me could equally well be called God rays.
Such a sight may be hard to reconcile with the fact that rays from the Sun are very close to parallel when they reach Earth. Here is what shadows cast by trees in fog look like from a different perspective.
