What appeared to be a sudden, unexpected storm near San Diego last night was not a storm at all. From the Los Angeles Times…
…the massive blob showing up Tuesday evening on the National Weather Service's radar in San Diego County was just a lot of ladybugs. Joe Dandrea, a meteorologist with NWS San Diego, said from the radar, the ladybug bloom appears to be about 80 miles by 80 miles, but the ladybugs aren't in a concentrated mass that size. Rather, they're spread throughout the sky, flying at between 5,000 and 9,000 feet, with the most concentrated mass about 10 miles wide.
Just wait. Before the year is out, it's going to be raining frogs somewhere. Actual frogs falling from the sky.
