Fish Falling from the Sky


Source: www.catholicforum.com
I read an article online about this matter. Charmane Awitan from ABS-CBN News reported that in Manila, Phillipines, about 72 fish fell from the sky. The fish were collected and placed in an aquarium. The article did not provide any substantial information with regards to possible causes of this phenomenon. I took the liberty to do readings online on what could cause fish to fall from the sky.

An article on Scienceline (www.scienceline.org) titled “Australian meat ants enjoy cane toads a la cat food” states that waterspouts are the causes of fish falling from the sky. Waterspouts are tornadoes over water that form when cold air moves over warm water. They can go around 200 miles an hour, therefore thrashing into the air anything that is one yard above the surface of the water which can be fish. Waterspouts can lift the fish into the clouds. The fish in the clouds is carried over land until the host cloud cannot carry the fish anymore, by the time they rain down, the fish are dead. Raining fish is not common and it has been centuries since an event such as this has been reported.

Scientifically I believe that fish can fall from the sky yet I do regard this as strange weather as this as paranormal.
