Description
Imagine: it's not just rain falling on you, but... fish! It's real. In the city of Yoro, Honduras, residents annually experience "Lluvia de Peces"—"fish rain"—when live fish fall from the sky. Amazing, isn't it?
But fish aren't the only oddity. In 2001, red rain fell in Kerala, India, due to algal spores. And in 2020, green snow, colored by microscopic algae, was recorded near Vernadsky Station in Antarctica. Nature surprises.
The sky can also surprise with its optics. Have you seen "fire rainbows"? These circumhorizontal arcs are formed by ice crystals at an altitude of 6,100 meters. Or the UFO-like lenticular clouds that often hover over peaks like Mount Fuji or Mount Rainier.
There's also a rarer phenomenon: ball lightning, observed since the 17th century. It's a glowing ball of plasma capable of penetrating walls. And "dirty thunderstorms" are volcanic lightning flashes over erupting volcanoes, such as Anak Krakatau. A truly powerful spectacle.
Finally, megacryometeors—huge ice floes falling from a clear sky, not from airplanes. One, weighing 4 kilograms, fell in Spain in 2000. Our planet is a never-ending source of weather miracles. Take a closer look at the sky—it always has surprises in store.
