You can connect to Wi-Fi just about anywhere these days, but could you connect to a Wi-Fi in the sky? One college student spotted the Wi-Fi symbol as formed by clouds in Xiangtan, Hunan Province, causing a stir on the Internet.

The "Wi-Fi" cloud was spotted by a college student named Shi Chao, at about 7 pm on April 10, on his way to a study room, according to the Sanxiang Metropolis Daily.

As an amateur photographer, Shi was attracted by the incredible image and took a photo with his cell phone.

Sina Weibo user @Hunan University of Science and Technology weibo association posted, "Have you connected the "Wi-Fi cloud" yet? I'll not tell you the password is."

The unusual cloud formation is actually called altocumulus, and it's often seen when the sun shines after rain, said the Xi'an Meteorological Bureau.
