Weather isnโt all sunshine and rainbowsโsometimes itโs rain, and sometimes that rain looks like blood.

A science channel that mixes imperial and metrical systems…. it's painful to watch
"…(this algae) which releases a red pigment when under stress." So getting sucked up into a cloud, floating around a bit, and then plummeting back to Earth is as stressful as it sounds. XD
We have seen incredible haboobs here in West Texas. They look especially impressive from space.
China IS the biggest polluter and yet we are driving our economy to the ground for no reason, because unless they correct their actions and behavior, we are not making a difference other than destroying our nation.
What about chubby rain???
An active volcano that erupts tornadoes that fling active volcanoes full of sharks.
Question: Does the blood rain in Spain fall mainly on the plain?
I've never seen any of these phenomena, but I've witnessed some incredible drops in temperature. A good example is the Blizzard of '78, we were at a guys place playing cards and within a couple of hrs the temp dropped about 20 degrees and the rain turned to massive amts of snow with high winds behind it. It got really hairy, there was one point I wasn't sure I was going to make it to safety.
God is sick of scientists
If the blood rain in Spain isn't falling mainly on the plain, then I don't know what any of us are doing here.
Should just call then "volnados" and be done with it.
2:00 Because blood rain is not weird enough it must be alien blood rain.
My favorite are microbursts. Beautiful day, not a cloud in the sky. You sit down to read a book, and the sun gets blotted out by a black storm cloud that basically manifested from nowhere on top of you, driving harsh rain, hail, and winds into your area. You take cover inside, only to realize the storm is over.
It's bs. So what if the sudden increase in tempurature comepared to the day before caused a Ton of water to vaporize all at once. I was Enjoying my day and now it's humid and gross.
nowhere near as bad as raining animal parts and guts or acid or glass shards
"Heat burst" Oh, you mean texas summers.
p sure we just got a heat burst last night here in minnesota

I've seen a sandstorm in the Sahara. Utterly terrifying. But if you want real wacky weather (heat waves and snowstorms on the same day) try Alberta, with its "Chinook winds".
Black Blizzards? I think Australia has a red hot go at producing these still!
Haha. Did someone say Slayer?
Hey there, SciShow. I don't really know what your demographics look like, but I think it would be pretty cool if you used freedom units and gave science units as reference.
Peter Gabriel had a song called "Red Rain"
The winter of 1982 on the Quill Plains in Saskatchewan, we had very little snow but very cold temps and because it's flat the east (artic) winds caused the topsoil to drift just like snow would! ๐ ๐จ๐ฆโค๏ธ๐จ๐ฆ
I love finding out weird & cool information like this, thanks SciShow!
Wanna hear something funny? In the Sahara there is a huge sand storm that comes every 40 years, you probable seen it movies like lost treasures of the Sahara, Egyptian mummy movies and the like but remember, it come every 40 years and they call it "Khamseen", so the Khamseen is predictable and it comes every 40 years, Do you know what the word Khanseen means? it means 50
Climate stability is not the norm for Earth, we happen to be living in the most stable climate era that the Earth has ever had, (remember that when you argue climate change) So why should weather phenomena be out of the ordinary?
I was stuck on a chairlift during a thundersnow event. It was stressful.
#4 is what ended Pompeii
Who says theyโre forbidden? Earth certainly doesnโt say they are.
Your cat is probably not playing with your thermostat. But why take the chance?
The narrator looks spookily similar to a kid I teach, (even the glasses and plaid shirt) and I fully believe this kid would give me a 10 min run down on weather phenomena if I ever brought up the topic
It was interesting seeing the aftermath of the 2019 fires in California. Out here in the Midwest, the sky actually had a haze for a few weeks after.
Next time, less yakkin' more plain summing up of facts/phenomena as such. No more. That superfluous yakkin' makes it nearly unbearable and for sure not interesting.
The blood rain in Spain falls mainly from the vein.

5M kg ~ 5500 t ??? What kind of "ton" is that?
sees black Blizzard
*holds a sign post in the middle of the village – THE END IS NIGH, RUN IF YOU CAN. ๐
Yea, donโt forget CHOCOLATE rain either!
Black rain: SQUIDS
Iโve heard of black Friday, but not black Sunday…
On Friday the 13th of August, 2021
Heat bursts: *exist
Australians: PANIK
A blood rain in Spain stays mainly on the plain.
UFF ๐
In June 1991, when Mt. Pinatubo erupted, it rained lahar. Not so weird, but frightening.
