Details:
Before yesterday morning, I had never heard of crepuscular rays. These beam of light represent the shadows of storms far beyond the horizon. These shadows then become visible great distances away, almost always at dawn or dusk, hence their name, crepuscular rays. While they appear as a converging beam, they are, in fact, parallel.
