Question

Read the Q&A text and list the exceptional natural phenomena described.

Answer

  • Sinkhole in Tampa, Florida: A giant hole that opened suddenly and swallowed cars, roads, and buildings. The excessive rainwater in the previous weeks was the main cause.
  • Glowing balls in Wales during thunderstorms: Glowing balls in the sky during thunderstorms in Wales were not ghosts but natural, incredible phenomena.
  • Millions of spiders raining down in Australia: Millions of spiders rained down in Australia during migration. Strands of silk from each spider covered fields, trees, and houses, creating a white and magical landscape.
  • Fish falling from the Sky in Australia: In a small Australian town, a whirlwind typical of Australia formed over water, sucking up small animals, including fish. When the whirlwind lost energy, it dropped everything onto the ground, leading to fish falling from the sky.

These events are considered exceptional due to their unusual and rare nature.
