Wild Google street view of my grandmother's house

My uncle sent me a link to a google street view of my grandmother's house and there is something weird above her house. I don't know if this is some kind of artifact of the picture process, and tornado, or what?

Because of privacy concerns, I don't want to post the link to google because it has her address in it, but here are screen captures I took that show it. Sort of fascinating so I thought I would share :)

Well, crap. I just noticed the screen cap had her address too. Can a moderator please remove the pics so I can repost them with the address removed?
 
Do the pics of the street next door on either side have the same artifact? If so, it could be a reflection of light on that 'camera bubble' they use on the top of the vehicle. If not - not sure...
 
Doh! It didn't occur to me to move down the street and check again. All I did was turn 180 degrees and look up and there it was inverted so I assumed it was still there.

But, taking your suggestion I moved down the street quite a ways and found another similar anomaly which clearly shows it is just some kind of artifact:
