Ishikawa was recently witness to a strange weather recently: a rain of tadpoles with a chance of fish.
Residents claim to have heard unusual noises overnight, and woke to find tadpoles littering cars, sidewalks, and yards. Neither meteorologists nor local officials can explain why the Japanese prefecture was subject to this kind of precipitation.
The event occurred once again on Saturday in a nearby town, with tadpoles found in a 300-square-meter radius, apparently ruling out some bizarre prank.
Then, on Tuesday night, small fish are said to have fallen from the sky nearby in yet another Fortean meteorological mystery.
“I’ve never seen anything like this before,” a meteorologist said. “We have no idea what caused it.”
It is not uncommon for waterspouts to develop, which may pick up and carry small aquatic vertebrates such as these, but no other precipitation was reported along with the falling creatures, and neither were conditions favorable for waterspout activity. Each of the three sites are however located on or just inland of the ocean, not that tadpoles are known to lead a marine life…

kuchiyose no jutsu !
Kafka at the seashore anyone?
My first thought, too
exactly! i was going to say something but someone else beat me to it
Holy shit, magnolia!
this has happened with frogs before due to tornados
It's a waterspout, not a tornado. Tornadoes are most commonly found in the midwestern section of the U.S.
Nevermind, I sort of misread that... sorry...sleepy sleepy...
IT'S A SIGN! IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!
APOCALIPSE!
guess it coming sooner than me though, like... 2012?
It's a sign! The End is near!
Next year it gonna rain blood & bull's heads!
i was waiting for this!

ha ha, truly bizarre... and it's so early in the morning i can't think of a witty comment :<
i hope malaysia,sarawak,kuching is raining of cats :( becuz kuching means cat :D
ha. is that supposed to be funny?
Aliens!
The invasion begin!
skypea exists
No one read kafka on the shore?
It's probably a promotion for that upcoming animated 3D movie, "Clouddy with a Chance of Meatballs".
Failed promotion for the movie Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs.
That's it North Korea!
Your treats has gone too far!
Have this PIG DISGUSTING RAIN!
I guess it's time to go rent the Seventh Sign and prepare for the end....
Death shall consume thy living...
Hmm, this somehow reminds me of the Kyoto arc in Mahou Sensei Negima!...Suddenly, tadpoles, everywhere!
Keroro Gunsou.
Enki loves lolis. He always parades around them and touches them.
i doubt about it, may be is alient coming and time for action heroes rising :P
i doubt anyone will read this since its such a late reply, but this happened in bonita CA a few years ago
we had shad fingerlings falling in peoples backyards
(shad is an anadromous species) brown pelicans were flying out to sweetwater resevour and scooping up mouthfulls of the fish and then dropping some of them on their return flight back to the bay.
The world will be ending when pigs fly.
Picked up by a typhoon/storm, then dumped. Or when the typhoon came to Japan it "came".
damn, it's a friggin biblical plague!
Ishikawa better say it's prayers~
This reminds me of Haruki Murakami's Kafka on the Sore.
I guess this is why u should not eat your food while reading on sankaku....
The only thing left to say what goes up must come down
Its actually has very logical explanation for this shit to happen-Water sucked by clouds,thus tadpoles aswell(being light and all)Then rains upon your nice cars and Windows.
To put it simple-Tadpoles can Fly.
This commonly happens,no big deal.Its AWWWWRight
Now imagine how crazy the people would have gone if this happened hundreds of years ago...
hehe.. Squishy thing goes *SPLAT*
must be because of typhoon somewhere around that area
For all those doubting this, it's rained fish, frogs, blood like substances, anything at various times in history throughout the world. Usually stuff gets picked up by a wind or such into the clouds and poured back down on people.
THE MORE YOU KNOW
KEEP DREAMING OF ILLUSIONS FROM SATAN! TRUTH IS WHEN ALL THIS HAPPENED LORD ENKI WAS AROUND ALSO KNOWN AS THE FATHER OF JESUS! WAKE UP FOOL!
Enki loves it up the ass.
Thank you
at least SOMEONE knows about this stuff ;0
Yeah cats and dogs too.
And knowing is half the battle. . .
Look likes SC has landed a G.I.joe fan ....... me
G.I.iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii JOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Strange lands indeed...
Is this for real? It's not a hoax or something, isn't it?
People are gonna be in trouble when it starts raining turtles.
Aaw! I don't want it to rain turtles! They're too cute, except the ones that bite you ant won't let go. Those bastards can rain and go splat all they want.
they probably go Boom instead of splat.. small craters all around..
Man why can't we have cool stuff like that happening over here.
Gyo IRL
any chance of caek raining? :3
Sure.
Actually, that was a lie.
All those creature gained the power to fly for a short period of time the fell to their deaths. I wonder when our turn will come around. or if pigs will get a chance, if they do many promises will come true.
what do you mean? the swine flu already
pun win
I both love and hate you for that remark.
hmmm there's something fishy going on.
Nice pun.
don't you mean something froggy, or something tadpolly?
NO
Read the article again.. ahh why do i even bother.
Mmmmm looks tasty!
I wanna rain peanuts...
I want it to rain lolis...
M&M's peanuts, Mmmmm.....
M&M's peanuts, with buckets of ice cream, and a mixer, so I can have delicious, delicious ice cream treats. And oreos. And indestructible loli-droids, that only wish to serve said delicious treats, and later, allow me to help myself to their delicious cake.
hee hee ha ha ho ho ho
Willy Wonka~
Holy crap anon, that sounded delicious.
Chocolate Rain.....lalalalalala...Chocolate Raaaaiiinnn
what if it rains penis instead?
Run for cover so the big ones don't dent your forehead.
Is it a bit, nutty?
Then I would laugh, it's that simple. Though, I would also be scared I suppose.
hell no
How bizarre.
Indeed... every time you look around, it's in your face.
is this the sign that the Heaven is falling?
the end is near mates
but i dont want to die yet until i play and finished FFXIII later
I don't want to die until I see the second season of Haruhi in it's entirety, play Metroid: Other M, have my own harem, and play FFXIII like you.
"Harem, harem." cries Moroboshi Ataru.
I can't die until I get a ps3, play FFXIII, Versus, and then play Persona 5, and maybe Tales of Grace...
fag.
its like you two are made for each other.
I can't die until You die
I can't die until everyone else dies.
Next step - raining women.
raininn women, yeah, agree (°w°)b
Does that mean theres a chance Mio will fall from the sky and land at my doorstep ?
She'd die at that height.
Me, I'll be in an airplane, waiting for my Mugi and Azusa.
YES! Mnemosyne reference!
That was a particularly memorable scene btw. At first you're like "wow, you sure it's wise to be- （ ﾟДﾟ） OH MY GOD WHAT DID I JUST SEE"
they'd get sucked into the engine
@ChocolateCrinkles: Same thing happens inMnemosyne, episode 5.
Yes, very likely, but enjoy your guro Mio.
It would be better if its money.
um woah, one exploded on that dude's car window
=O omg, rain fish!!!!! its.....its....the apocalipse
Next it will be raining Loli, and then what? Chaos, utter chaos my friends.
Grab em while they're not banned yet
And we will rejoice. Grab the lolis to make sure they don't break, aim for the cute ones!
God came, and those were his sperm.
A "giant" came and those were his sperm.
Fix'd
Chaos? Or prayer to the gods for their blessings?
The Dark Gods speak! When it rains Chaos, we shall rise up and throw down the shackles of slavery the Imperium has imposed upon us!
Death to the False Emperor!
i am amused by warhammer nerdiness :D
but definely cool
"the god gave us food!"
lol heaven exists, the fish was swimming in the heaven sea
