The sudden

People in Tampico, Mexico have recently had meals with herring and cod fish without buying, because they simply come down from the sky.

Pedro Granados, local emergency services director, said: "This is strange, this is not normal at all."

The fish were collected after the "fish rain" battle.

However, Mr. Pedro also added that such fish rains are not too rare. A number of similar cases have been documented in many places, such as Kansas City, USA, to Australia over the years.

In fact, this is just a very simple phenomenon when explained in the eyes of science.

The storms with strong swirling winds followed all the things on the road they passed. It could be houses, trees, people, animals, as well as a large amount of water in rivers, lakes, ponds, even the sea.

At that time, light objects, especially fish and frogs, were often put in the air, in some cases taken away very far, then fell somewhere in the shock of the locals.

The phenomenon of "fish rain" is so popular in a fishing village in Honduras that the people here create an annual festival to celebrate. For many people living in the hinterland, this is probably a great opportunity for them to enjoy free seafood.
