Object Produces Vortex of Clouds

It was a warm day in the middle of June. My brother and I were working in our backyard, suddenly my brother said: "Look over there- What is that?"

To my shock there was a black object in the sky repeatedly doing circular patterns in the direction of the Verrazano Bridge, and hard to determine at what altitude. As it did this a vortex of gasseous vapor appeared from where the oject was moving, the vapor continued spreading out and the object repeated the maneuvers.

About 10 minutes later a sudden and powerful thunderstorm came, and lasted for about 15-20 minutes.

Afterwards the sky cleared up and there was no sign of the object.

My brother and I are both positive that the vortex of clouds and most likely the thunderstorm originated from this object.
