Fish & Frogs Fall From the Sky


In preparation for my trip to Kenya I read Nairobi's Daily Nation to check current events. Today's paper has an article called "Experts warn of more ‘fish and frogs’ rain." Literally, the sky rains fish and frogs.

"Days after fish and frogs “rained” from the sky in Nakuru, weather experts have warned Kenyans to expect more such spectacles. “This is going to occur more often because of climate change,” Kenya Meteorological Department director Joseph Mukabana said on Tuesday. Dr Mukabana said fish and frogs are sucked from the water surface by strong winds into the clouds, which eventually rain down all that has been collected."
