The Strange Weather Around Us

Almost all of us, if we have lived long enough, have experienced strange weather. At times weather fronts can be really freaky. I guess most of us have heard about fish falling from the sky during a storm, or places where no rain ever falls, But when a layperson would think that since our earth is surrounded by an atmosphere and things in that atmosphere like clouds for example, circle the earth, you might naturally think think that much of the same weather should be experienced by everyone, yet that isn't true. I guess that is why weather prediction is still an art and not a science, or so they say. There are so many different factors that affect weather prediction that it has been said that even the most powerful computer ever built can not predict weather accurately all the time.

As we move deeper into the 21st century we begin to hear more and more stories about weather weapons. Do we have them, do they have them, does anyone have them? There are many references to them and even I have discussed them in the past, but the truth is that weather is like a UFO sighting in some way. What I mean is, that if something really strange happens with the weather, some people will say that it was caused by a weather weapon. That is exactly what some are saying about the hurricanes that hit Florida and our southern coast a few years ago. The story went this way. The Russians were testing their new weather weapon on us and it was capable of producing hurricanes. The reason I said this is like a UFO sighting is that when something strange happens in the world, many people say it must have been the aliens or UFO that caused it.

In 1958 a man was sitting in his kitchen in New Jersey. Then it happened, his house became a war zone. A huge 70 ice bomb fell through the roof. In case you think that this is an isolated incident, you would be wrong. This does happen from time to time. Now most of us might think that the ice accumulated in the sky from hale and such, but according to scientists, this is impossible, yet when the ice is analyzed a very strange thing is found. The ice is composed of the same water that is found in a cloud. If that is true, than how can scientists say that a piece of ice this big can not form in the sky? When an ice bomb fell in Britain, residents said that they noticed a flash of lightning at the same time. I guess the question is, unless this ice was formed instantly, how could it stay in the sky long enough to get so heavy?

In 1971 a paper was written that scientists working at the St. Paul, Minnesota, UDSA Forest Service. It examined the causes of a very strange weather phenomena. It was called a fire whirlwind. I realize that many of us didn't even know that such a weather condition existed, but not only does it exist, there are certain days where it is more likely to occur. I am including the report since I believe that it is such an interesting topic. You will need a PDF reader to view it.

If a weather condition like this could be weaponized, imagine how deadly it would be. Not only does the fire pose a threat, but if it could be made hot enough, it could deplete the oxygen in an area, much as the huge gas bomb do that we know that we have.

One man reported that he was jogging and it began to rain. Nothing so strange about that, but then something strange did happen. He noticed a strange purple glow coming from all the trees and buildings around him. The next thing that he knew, a tree got hit and exploded. He states that he told someone, but that they didn't believe him and apparently no one else came forward to tell this story.

A group of friends stated that they went out for a boat ride. A storm hit them and it rained. They took shelter inside the boat. When it stopped they went topside and the women noticed that their hair was standing up. They also noticed that there was a strange blue glow on an antenna. They could actually feel the static electricity in the air. They had experienced St. Elmo's Fire. St. Elmo's Fire is an electrical weather phenomenon. It originates from a grounded object in an atmospheric electric field. A coronal discharge can be seen.

Sometimes things will be seen that appear to be paranormal during a storm. One of these types of things is ball lightning. It is about the size of a basketball. It can travel parallel to the ground, which is completely different than the way lightning usually travels. It can even bounce when it hits the ground. It could be several different colors, such as red, white, yellow and red changing to yellow. Sometime bad smells have been reported coming from it. There are several theories on what it is exactly. Some scientists think that it might be some type of plasma, but others are not so sure. It can be traveling along then explode with a very loud bang. A hissing sound is sometimes heard coming from it.

Yes there are some very strange types of weather and some so strange that we are at a loss to explain them.
