BETHLEHEM – Friday was one of those nice fall days — clear and sunny, with a cloud or two poking around the sky.
It was a good day for yard work and that’s what Brad Chapman and groundskeeper Trevor Houston were doing, down by the stone wall, just before 12:30 p.m.
“All of a sudden, we heard a whoosh — it was like a two-second whoosh — and it was kind of eerie,” Chapman said. “And then we heard a thump and we looked around and saw this ball of ice, 30, 40 feet away, tops.” Goodness, gracious.
“It was eerie, that whoosh,” said Chapman, innkeeper at Adair Country Inn. “I looked around to see if someone was throwing snowballs — that was my first thought. And then I thought, ‘That’s a big snowball.’”

Marian Liknes said she had just entered her bedroom to answer the phone shortly before 9:30 a.m., when a massive chunk of ice crashed through the ceiling with a deafening blast, mere centimetres from where she was sitting. Continue reading Ice from plane almost hits woman…

Huge ice chunk can’t top Waco whopper of 1930s

A 6-pound chunk of ice that smelled a little like fish and looked a lot like quartz made big news in York, Pa., last week. That’s because the frozen concoction fell from the sky, through a York woman’s roof and slightly injured her while she slept.
Mary Ann Foster was glad to be alive after a piece of the ice broke off and hit her on the forehead. The lump of ice left the 66-year-old grandmother with a large bump on her head and holes in her roof and bedroom ceiling.
Local officials, meantime, were left with a mystery: Where did the six pounds of ice come from? Some speculated that it might have fallen from an airplane or rocket, but the actual source remains unknown. Continue reading Huge ice chunk can’t top Waco whopper of 1930s…

A York Township woman is lucky to be alive after a piece from a six-pound block of ice fell from the sky, crashed through her roof and struck her on her forehead Wednesday morning.

She called out to her husband to ask if he had heard anything.
“I think something weird happened upstairs,” Foster said.
“You better go up and check it out.” Continue reading Ice crashes through home…
Científicos españoles explican la lluvia de bloques de hielo de los últimos años

Sevilla, Valencia, Soria o Madrid ya han recibido la visita de estos «megacriometeoros», generosos trozos de hielo que impactan súbitamente contra el suelo bajo un cielo despejado. Se intuye que el fenómeno ha existido siempre, si bien los primeros casos documentados datan de los años 50. En España se han registrado al menos nueve impactos en este siglo, la mayoría en los primeros meses de 2000. La lluvia de conglomerados de hielo supone un riesgo para personas y bienes materiales, pero constituye una amenaza especialmente aguda para la aviación.
