Found this and had to share! lol news.stv.tv/scotland/east-central/240577-its-raining-worms-schoolchildrens-lesson-interrupted-by-falling-creepy-crawlies/ It's raining worms: Schoolchildren's lesson interrupted by creepy crawlies falling from sky David Crichton: The teacher collected over 100 worms after the unusual rainfall. Pic: © Kingdom News Agency Pupils at a Scots school had to run for cover when it started raining worms during their PE lesson. Teacher David Crichton was leading a group of pupils playing football on an astroturf pitch at Galashiels Academy when dozens of the slimy creatures began plummeting from the sky. The second-year boys had to abandon their lesson as the earthworms fell during the bizarre incident. David said the children had just completed their warm up when they began to hear "soft thudding" on the ground. The class then looked to the cloudless sky and saw worms falling on to them. The 26-year-old teacher said he was baffled by the unexplained incident. Later he and other teachers found more worms spread across a tennis court almost 100 yards away. David said: "We went out to one of our outdoor areas - an all weather astroturf pitch. "We were out playing football and had just done our warm up and were about to start the next part of the lesson. We started hearing this wee thudding noise on the ground. There were about 20 worms already on the ground at this point. "Then they just kept coming down. The kids were laughing but some were covering their heads and others were running for cover for a while. They just scattered to get out of the way." The bizarre occurrence took place at around 9.15am on Tuesday. The teacher then scooped up handfuls of the worms as proof they had landed on his class. David said he and his colleagues eventually found around 120 worms in total after checking the artificial football pitch and tennis courts. He added: "After it happened I counted about 60 on the multi purpose court we were on. I went in and told the other PE teachers and we went out to the tennis courts about 100 yards away. There were about 60 there on the tennis courts - so there were over 100 in total. "Everyone was having a laugh at me about it until they went out and saw for themselves. They were joking about it - and I said 'if you don't believe me go out and have a look'. Everyone thought I was mad. They came back in and looked shocked. The boys have certainly been talking all about it since then. "I spoke with the science department here but none of them had any explanation for it. One of them thought maybe it was a freak weather thing. But it was such a clear, calm day. And we are quite a bit away from any of the buildings so it's not like anyone could have been throwing them.” Showers of worms falling from the heavens have been reported in the past. In 1872 worms were reported falling in Somerville, Massachusetts, in 1877 in Christiana, Norway, and in 1924 in Halmstad, Sweden. More recently, in July 2007, a woman was crossing a road in Jennings, Louisiana, on her way to work when large clumps of tangled worms dropped down from above. That incident is believed to have been caused by freak weather over a nearby river lifting water and worms and dumping it over the road. Now, personally that excuse about them coming from the river...ridiculous! Everyone knows worms live in the earth not water. My Grandpa actually saw it rain frogs once. He used to tell us about it all the time. Weird phenomenon anyway.

from WAFB.com: www.wafb.com/Global/story.asp?S=6771977Jennings Police Department employee, Eleanor Beal was just crossing the street to go to work when something dropped from the sky. The sky wasn't falling. She says it was worms, large tangled clumps of them. Beal says, "When I saw that they were crawling, I said, 'It's worms! Get out of the way!'" She even called her co-worker outside to prove she wasn't making it up. Sure enough, she saw worms, and globs of them. Where they came from is a mystery, but some believe that a water spout spotted less than five miles away at that same time near Lacassine Bayou could have something to do with it. Eleanor Beal says she hopes she doesn't see it again.

The one small picture of the Scottish teacher holding a container of them - they looked brown like earth worms. Sea worms and fresh water worms aren't brown. (Well there may be some brown ones but they don't occur in clumps.)

www.livescience.com/44760-raining-frogs.html Raining Frogs & Fish: A Whirlwind of TheoriesBy Benjamin Radford, Live Science Contributor April 10, 2014 A woodcut showing a rain of frogs in Scandanavia, from 'Prodigiorum ac Ostentorum Chronicon,' one of the first modern books about strange phenomenon, was published in 1557. Credit: Public domain. For millennia, people have reported a rare and strange phenomenon: a sudden rain of frogs — or fish or worms — from the sky. You may be minding your own business walking in a park on a blustery day when a small frog hits you on the top of the head. As you peer down at the stunned animal, another one comes down, and another and another all around you, in a surreal rain of frogs in various states of trauma. Charles Fort, an early collector of reports about strange phenomena, noted the following in his 1919 tome, "The Book of the *bleep*": "A shower of frogs which darkened the air and covered the ground for a long distance is the reported result of a recent rainstorm at Kansas City, Mo." This report first appeared in the July 12, 1873, issue of Scientific American. Fort noted dozens of similar reports from around the world and wrote that as "for accounts of small frogs, or toads, said to have been seen to fall from the sky, a writer says that all observers were mistaken: that the frogs or toads must have fallen from trees or other places overhead." Any number of small animals have been reported falling from the sky, including ants, small fish and worms. Modern examples tend to be rare, but reports do surface occasionally in magazines devoted to strange phenomenon such as Fortean Times (named after Fort). Frog rains were mentioned in an episode of "The X-Files" titled "Die Hand Die Verletzt" ("The Hand That Wounds"), in which Agent Scully exclaims, "Mulder... toads just fell from the sky," to which the unflappable Agent Mulder replies, "I guess their parachutes didn't open." Bob Rickard and John Michell, in their book, "The Rough Guide to the Unexplained," note that "The quality of the evidence for rains of fishes and frogs is good, with a canon of well-observed cases going back to antiquity." According to Jane Goldman's "The Book of The X-Files," "Falls of animals were first recorded in A.D. 77, in Pliny's 'Natural History' which scoffed at the idea that they could rain from the skies, suggesting instead that they grew from the ground after heavy rains." This explanation likely seemed reasonable 2,000 years ago — after all, some animals such as worms and insects do seem to suddenly "appear" on the grounds during and following heavy rains, driven to the surface because they cannot breathe in the soaked soil. So if the frogs don't originally come from the skies, and they don't "grow" out of the ground after being watered, where do they come from?

ufodigest.com/article/fishfall-0605AN EXTRAORDINARY FISH FALL OVER HONDURAS!Source: Diario Popular (Honduras) [Translation (c) 2014, S. Corrales, IHU with thanks to Guillermo Gimenez and Diario Popular] posted by Inexplicata (IHU) The mysterious phenomenon affected the region of Yoro. While there is no evidence that can scientifically explain this fact, it could be due to a meteorological phenomenon. A torrential storm left a "fishfall" in a village of northern Honduras. This curious phenomenon has caused both incredulity and headaches among scientists, according to reports appearing this Friday in the local press Residents of La Unión, Department of Yoro, some 300 km to the north of the capital, went out with containers to gather small fish that fell in their backyards and in the streets of their community, following a thunderstorm that erupted on Wednesday night. Honduran newspapers published photographs of children displaying the fish allegedly collected after the storm, which occurs yearly in different parts of Yoro, one of the 18 departments of Honduras. Hypotheses on the phenomenon vary, but there is no certainty regarding the cause. Some theories hold that the fish are lifted by the currents and winds of the Caribbean, despite the fact that Yoro is 200 kilometers distant from the sea. Others suggest that they issue from the bowels of the earth, drawn by subterranean currents. CONTINUE READING: inexplicata.blogspot.ca/

www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/05/19/the-science-behind-australias-spooky-spider-rain/ Why spooky spiders rained from the sky in AustraliaBy Sarah Kaplan / www.washingtonpost.com/people/sarah-kaplan May 19, 2015 A house is surrounded by spiderwebs next to flood waters in Wagga Wagga on March 6, 2012. Residents of nearby Goulburn saw a similar phenomenon this month, after millions of spiders reportedly descended on the Australian town. (Daniel Munoz/Reuters) Residents of Goulburn, Australia, awoke this month to find their town shrouded in eerie, silken webs, while millions of tiny spiders rained down from above, local news reported. “The whole place was covered in these little black spiderlings and when I looked up at the sun it was like this tunnel of webs going up for a couple of hundred meters into the sky,” resident Ian Watson told the Sydney Morning Herald. His house looked like it had been “abandoned and taken over by spiders,” he added. Mystified by the phenomenon — and frustrated by the tiny arachnids getting caught in his beard — Watson did what anyone in his situation would do: He turned to the Internet. “Anyone else experiencing … millions of spiders falling from the sky right now?” he wrote on Goulburn’s community Facebook page, according to the Morning Herald. “I’m 10 minutes out of town and you can clearly see hundreds of little spiders floating along with their webs and my home is covered in them. Someone call a scientist!” It’s not clear if anyone did pick up their phone, but if they had, scientists could have assured the people of Goulburn that their predicament is not without precedent. Similar incidents have been documented recently in Texas and Brazil and nearby Wagga Wagga, another Australian town.

www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/285947/why-do-frogs-sometimes-rain-from-the-sky Why do frogs sometimes rain from the sky ?Posted on Thursday, 10 September, 2015 Frogs have been known to cascade from the heavens. Image Credit: CC BY-SA 2.5 Richard Bartz Peculiar showers of frogs, fish and other strange things have been reported for thousands of years.One of the most recent such downpours occurred earlier this year across parts of Washington, Oregon and Idaho where residents reported rain drops that were milky white in color. Climate scientists weren't able to conclusively source where the rain had originated however it was believed to have received its white color from ash picked up from wildfire burn scars in the region. Rainfall like this would seem to be a freak occurrence - something that happens only once in a blue moon, yet throughout history there have been numerous accounts of strange downpours, many of which being a lot more peculiar than rain that is simply a different color. Perhaps the most unusual of all are reports of frogs, fish or insects dropping from the sky in large quantities - a phenomenon that in ancient times was often attributed to divine intervention. "In Paeonia and Dardania, it has, they say, before now rained frogs; and so great has been the number of these frogs that the houses and the roads have been full of them," the Greek philsopher Heraclides Lembus wrote of such an incident back in the second century BC. Similar events have also occurred recently such as in 2005 when a downpour of small frogs was reported in a small town in northernwestern Siberia. So what exactly is going on to cause this ? The answer, most scientists agree, is that these animals are being sucked up in to the sky by a tornado, carried over large distances and then dropped again several miles away. Raindrops with unusual colors can also usually be explained by anomalous substances being drawn up in to the sky. Red and yellow rain tends to be caused by dust and sand from a desert while black rain has been attributed to volcanic activity or pollution. Charles Fort, a prominent researcher of all things unexplained, managed to gather more than 60,000 newspaper articles pertaining to peculiar downpours occurring in countries all over the world. Oddly enough these intriguing phenomena are a lot more common than most people realize.

mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/02/meteorologists-unable-to-explain-massive-fish-fall-in-texas/ Meteorologists Unable to Explain Massive Fish Fall in Texasby Brett Tingley / mysteriousuniverse.org/author/bbtingley/February 21, 2018 Throughout recorded history there are scores of documented examples of anomalous animals falling from the sky, the most common being fish. Fish falls are one of those strange phenomena which often defy explanation; while waterspouts and/or tornadoes are known to sometimes suck fish up into the sky, carry them inland, and drop them on unsuspecting landlubbers, there are many cases without plausible meteorological causes. Case in point: residents of Fulshear, Texas were horrified recently by a rain of fish that littered homes and gardens with the reeking, mangled corpses of fish. Even stranger, meteorologists say there were no tornadoes or waterspouts in the area which could have accounted for the rain of fish. What exactly happened in this small Texas town? Not exactly what you want to see on your lawn during your walk to fetch the paper in the morning. Houston news outlet Click2Houston reported that around ten homes in the Cross Creek Ranch subdivision found fish scattered throughout their property on the afternoon of January 16. According to some reports, some residents found up to 100 fish on their property, while others found a dozen or fewer. Most of the fish were threadfin shad, a freshwater fish common throughout the southeastern United States. Many of the fish exploded on impact, creating a grisly and curious scene for baffled Texas homeowners. One Fulshear man, Ryan Metz, described the discovery as “weird:” I looked down and there it was laying there, three or four fish, and started walking around found about 15, found a few in the pool, so it was weird.“It was interesting, to say the least,” Metz’s wife Dana added. Especially when given the weather recorded on the day of the fish fall. Most of central Texas was experiencing an ice storm that day, but weather nerds say the conditions observed that day don’t quite explain how the fish could have ended up in the sky miles from the closest body of water. Houston-based National Weather Service meteorologist Dan Reilly told The Fortean that the weather doesn’t quite support the waterspout or tornado theory: Radar shows no thunderstorms, really just stratiform precipitation (mostly sleet/ice pellets). Waterspouts, tornadoes would not make sense at all from the meteorology of the day, and no hint of any rotation or anything odd on radar. It remains a mystery as far as I’m concerned.Another theory is that the fish became essentially mummified when a nearby pond or lake dried up, allowing their much lighter desiccated bodies to be carried by the wind. Still, that doesn’t sound as plausible given the sheer numbers of the fish and the heights at which they were found on the roofs of homes. What might explain this anomalous fish fall or any of the other unexplained animal rains recorded throughout history? With a little luck we’ll never know. The world needs a little mystery. mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/02/meteorologists-unable-to-explain-massive-fish-fall-in-texas/

I don’t recall hearing about these “falls” being so gross. I mean, I assumed from some of the past pictures of frogs, that sometimes things “fell” without getting hurt. Fish, they need water, so yeah, they won’t live long. I even considered, that being “pelted” by a frog from the sky, would sting if it hit me. So, is this mangled situation new?

mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/06/green-gems-are-falling-from-the-sky-over-the-kilauea-volcano/ Green Gems are Falling from the Sky over the Kilauea Volcanoby Paul Seaburn / mysteriousuniverse.org/author/paulseaburn/June 15, 2018 “It is literally raining gems. Nature is truly amazing.”Some people might say that living in Hawaii is a gift in itself. Those people are probably not living in the path of the lava flowing from the Kilauea volcano on the Big Island, which is demolishing everything in its path, including vaporizing water in the ocean. Those who believe that Kilauea is the home of Pele, the fire goddess of Hawaiian folklore, may blame this on profiteers stealing the volcano’s thermal heat or tourists stealing Kilauea’s lava rocks. For those people, Pele may be compensating with a gift of her own … green gemstones falling from the sky. Is this a Pele payday? “It is literally raining gems. Nature is truly amazing.” Meteorologist Erin Jordan lives in Tuscon, Arizona – a long way from Hawaii – but she has friends there who sent pictures of the stones which she tweeted with an explanation that the shiny green crystals are olivine, a magnesium iron silicate with the formula (Mg2+, Fe2+)2SiO4. While it’s a gift from Kilauea in Hawaii, those who can’t afford a trip there might try Norway, where 50 % of the world’s industrial olivine in mined. In fact, olivine is a fairly common mineral on and in the ground, but separate large crystals falling from the sky is pretty unusual, according to minerals.net. “Despite this, good specimens and large crystals are uncommon and sought after. Only few localities yield large examples of this mineral, although small and microscopic grains are found worldwide. Olivine is also found in meteorites, and large grains have been reported in many of them.” Popular Mechanics reports that the falling crystals over Kilauea are inside the lava erupting into the sky. As the lava cools, it hardens into pumice — that porous rock commonly used as an abrasive for pedicures and in the production of stone-washed jeans. (Pele must be so proud.) Being full of holes and fairly lightweight, the pumice falls slowly, allowing the olivine crystals to drop out of the holes and fall separately. Are these falling olivine stones really a gift from Pele? Possibly. Depending on the quality and size, it’s used as a gemstone called peridot or chrysolithe. However, it may actually be a present to the entire world. Olivine grains can be used to sequester or store atmospheric carbon dioxide, the nastiest of the greenhouse gasses, and slow down global warming by breaking down the CO2 as it weathers. Sending the olivine rain to save the planet may be Pele’s real message to humanity … as long as humanity leaves the stones in Hawaii. It’s illegal to remove the gems – whether jewelry-sized or the sandy crystals that make up Hawaii’s green beaches. It would be just your luck to get caught picking up a peridot and placed in a jail that is suddenly in the path of a fast-moving lava flow just as the jailer loses the key to your cell. It’s not nice to mess with the goddess of fire. mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/06/green-gems-are-falling-from-the-sky-over-the-kilauea-volcano/

mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/07/something-stinks-about-the-mysterious-brown-rain-in-canada/
Something Stinks About the Mysterious ‘Brown Rain’ in Canadaby Brett Tingley / mysteriousuniverse.org/author/bbtingley/July 3, 2018 Weird things falling from the sky are a never-ending source of fodder for those of us who cover the higher mysteries – er, perhaps lower mysteries in the case of what’s been falling from the sky in Canada. Over the last month, at least ten separate incidents of what appears and smells to be feces falling out of the sky have been reported in British Columbia alone, leaving residents terrified and smelly. In all, Transport Canada has received 18 separate reports of this mysterious and malodorous falling substance. The first incident occurred on June 4th when Sue Allan and her son were driving in the beautiful British Columbia spring weather with the sunroof open (of course). As they stopped at a red light, a veritable shower of feces fell directly on top of their car, covering both of the car’s occupants. “We were inundated with poop,” Allan told an interviewer following the incident. “You could feel drops falling from the sky — hitting our face, inside the car, all over the windshield.” The pair were alerted to the presence of a passing aircraft overhead by a fellow driver, leading to speculation that the feces fell from a malfunctioning airliner’s bathroom. However, no airlines in the area reported any malfunctions. Allan reported getting conjunctivitis – pink eye – in both eyes following the splatter. It’s a pretty crappy situation all around.Another similar incident occurred in Saskatchewan Province, in which a family’s backyard barbecue was ruined by a splattering of brown droplets that in no way went with the chicken and asparagus they were grilling. Kristl Tipton and her two children were minding their own feces-free business on Tuesday, June 5th when the last thing you want falling out of the sky onto you did exactly that. Oddly, it seemed to only affect their deck and nothing else, Tipton told the CBC: It was droplets that came from straight up, there was no spatter pattern that indicated the direction it came from other than straight from the sky. It was just so mysterious to us, how it happened, how it was localized to that one spot.Tipton also added that “we smelled it and it smelled like poo,” and that “it was pretty gross.” Who knew? Farther north in Canada’s Northwest Territories, a similar thing happened to the Smith family as they and their home were splattered with a mysterious black liquid. “It was like somebody’s septic tank burst,” says Linda Smith. “It was really bad.” While aircraft lavatories have been the go-to theory for what’s dropping this black rain all across western Canada, Transport Canada asserts that whatever is falling on these people is most certainly not airplane lavatory waste. After reviewing local radar data, eyewitness reports, and interviewing local air traffic controllers, Canada’s transportation authority says something else is to blame.”The department’s review has concluded that these incidents do not meet the description of blue ice and are therefore not aviation related,” a Transport Canada statement reads. Furthermore, given the frequency and geographic distribution of these events, that would mean there would have to be a whole lot of planes with similarly malfunctioning lavatories flying around. After investigating, Transport Canada maintains that none of the 18 incidents is aviation-related, leading the initial victim Sue Allan to think there might be more to the story than is being admitted. “I believe that this is a cover-up by the government,” she told Motherboard. Covering up what exactly, though? One theory for this unexplained brown rain is that the feces of migrating Canadian geese could be falling on these unsuspecting Canadians after having been carried hundreds of miles by high-altitude winds and the jet stream. Most scientists aren’t buying that, arguing that there is no precedent for such a phenomenon and that the descriptions of this mystery substance do not sound or smell like bird excrement. While it’s hard to believe that this phenomenon is not aviation-related, the fact that Transport Canada is assuring everyone that airliners aren’t involved might imply there is more clandestine air traffic overhead than we know about. But why the frequency of reports over residential areas? This one is weird. What could be causing this mysterious brown rain in Canada? mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/07/something-stinks-about-the-mysterious-brown-rain-in-canada/
