Why Do Fish Fall From The Sky When It Rains? by ProsperChild(op): 6:18am On Apr 03, 2019

Sometimes fish fall from the sky when it rains. Why do they fall only when it is raining?

A cumulonimbus is a very tall cloud. It can be in excess of 40000 feet(~1.5km). That involves massive updraughts and downdraughts.

The updraughts lift things (e.g. fish) into the cloud, the cloud moves along and the downdraughts then dump the fish elsewhere (e.g. over land) - this is often accompanied by rain.

Tornadoes can do this too, but usually over a more limited area.
Does this justifies the argument?

COS when evaporation occurs it carries fish from the River or Sea to the sky in which it will fall..

Fishes, frogs, toads etc actually fall/come from the clouds. That's how God replenish them, coupled with their reproduction

Fish can never fall from the sky .. What they experience is fish in the street .. Flooding , hibernation those are some of the logical ideas for fish to be in the street

It is not real, there is nothing like fishing falling from the sky, just a widespread rumour.

Updraughts lift fish? Iyemeh.

Updraughts now stronger than gravity, that it'll lift fish to stratosphere. Why don't we have papers fall alongside these fishes...?

Confused religion called science.
