Sounds completely natural to me... <.\/I>

Completely natural. Often you will find these formations where there are sudden changes in surface features (like mountains) or where 2 or more air streams conflict with each other - they are referred to as "barrels".

Pilots know that flying through a "barrel" can be tough and is often better to go well above or well below.
