The latest in a series of bizarre British weather phenomena is a rain of fish. It may sound like the stuff of legend, but such events are increasingly well documented.
On Wednesday, the village of Knighton, in Powys, was reported to have endured such a fishy deluge. Not a story easily believed – an odd site for a Biblical-style plague, one might think, perhaps to be followed by the waters of the nearby River Teme running red with blood?

Non-aqueous Rain:

Rare and yet real, cases exist of rains of animals instead of water. This has occurred occasionally throughout history, from the Biblical times up to recent history. Meteorologists are still unsure of the cause.

What utter non-sense. There is not a single verifiable source confirming there has ever been a “rain” which consisted of animals instead of water.

When the Army found out that all these problems were staged to bring in tourists via train, they put a stop to it, and it quickly became the tamest (and eventually emptiest) town in the west.
