Unusual weather phenomena in the world

Fire, ice bombs, and rain of blood are ranked among the most unusual weather phenomena in the world.

Flames, also known as fire flames or fire demons , are a rare phenomenon in which flames move vertically, according to Mother Nature Network.A tornado can form in two ways, when a tornado works too close to a forest fire location or due to a large amount of heat generated in a small area.Swirls vary in size and operating time.They usually last no more than a few minutes.(Photo: NOAA).

Huge hailstones , sometimes called ice bombs, often fall from the sky during intense thunderstorms.They are broken into small pieces when falling to the ground.The largest hailstone that fell in the US has a diameter of 20.3cm and weighs 0.87kg.(Photo: Wikimedia).

Clay is a special type of clay, like a ball of light floating in the air.It is sized from golf balls to soccer balls, does not generate heat and sound.In 2012, Chinese researchers recorded a high-speed video of lightning strikes and took photos of its emission spectrum for the first time.The analytical results show that clayey clay is produced by minerals evaporating from the soil.(Photo: Joe Thomissen).

Some animals can fall from the sky in strange rains including fish, frogs, birds, worms, spiders.This is a phenomenon that occurs in many countries, often occurring immediately after a tornado or storm.They are swept up from the ground and carried away for many kilometers.Photo: iStock.

Red sprites are red flashing rays appearing above storm clouds and thunderclouds at an altitude of about 96 km.Many pilots said they had seen this phenomenon, but their existence was not recognized until 1989. (Photo: Paul Smith).

The rain on Earth may have vivid colors like red, yellow, black and white like milk.Scientists say the cause may be the spores of algae in the air.However, some chemicals and dust can also produce unusual rain colors.For example, pollen produces yellow rain, coal dust dust causes black rain.(Photo: Wikimedia).

Saint Elmo's fire is an electrostatic phenomenon, which results in a discharge from a sharp object with a high charge density in a strong electric field like in a storm.Saint Elmo's fire is named after Saint Erasmus of Formiae, the patron saint of sailors.Many sailors describe it as a fire ball jumping on a ship and climbing a mast.(Photo: Wikimedia).

Water dragon nozzle (water devil) is a tornado above the water, formed from a growing rain cloud.This phenomenon is common in tropical areas where storms occur regularly.Taps are not really absorbing water, small droplets formed by condensation can be seen in the funnel-shaped cloud.The tornado sometimes produces a whistling sound and an uproar.(Photo: iStock).

Star jelly is a sticky liquid, strange mucus falling from the sky, often appearing on fields and lawns after meteor shower.Scientists do not know what this liquid is, because it dissipates quite quickly before being taken for analysis.The origin and chemical composition of star mucus is still a great mystery for researchers.(Photo: Wikimedia).
