Mysterious Whirlpool Spiral Seen Flying Over Hawaii Sky
A “mysterious” whirlpool spiral was seen flying over the Hawaiian sky. This unidentified phenomenon was filmed on February 4th, 2020 and quickly went viral on social media platforms.
What Was It?
Experts are unable to identify what this strange phenomenon was. Some have speculated that it could be a phenomenon known as a ‘spiralling fire whirl’, where winds combine with fire to produce a whirlpool-esque spinning disc.
What Do Researchers Think?
Researchers at the University of Hawaii have studied the videos and still images of the spiral and believe that it must have been a unique phenomenon. Some scientists believe that it could be a form of ‘ball lightning’, which is a rare weather phenomenon where electrical discharges form in the sky.
What Causes It?
At this point, the cause of this phenomenon is uncertain. Some researchers believe that it is caused by the combination of windshear and the presence of moisture in the air, while others believe that it is the result of a sudden temperature or pressure change in the atmosphere.
What Does It Mean For Hawaii?
This sighting of the whirlpool is unique and researchers are still trying to figure out what it means for Hawaii. It could be a sign of changing weather patterns in the area, or could be a one-of-a-kind incident that never happens again.
What To Do If You See One
If you ever get the chance to witness this phenomenon, here are some tips to keep in mind:
- Stay safe: Always be mindful of your safety when viewing the whirlpool, as it is a potentially dangerous natural phenomenon.
- Take photos or video: If it is safe to do so, take photographs or video footage of the event as they can be helpful in gathering more information.
- Inform experts: Reach out to experts or meteorologists who can provide more information on the event.
This mysterious whirlpool spiral is a unique and fascinating natural phenomenon. While the cause of the whirlpool is still unknown, it has generated much curiosity and excitement amongst researchers, who are trying to uncover its mystery. Residents in Hawaii were shocked and mesmerized this week, after videos surfaced of a bizarre whirlpool spiral flying across the sky.
The spiral-shaped flyover was seen ascending in the sky, with a puff at its center. Some say the puff resembles a ring smoke, or cloud of mist. Social media has been abuzz with theories as to what the spiral could be – ranging from a meteorological phenomenon to a glimpse of the paranormal.
The mysterious spiral was first spotted at 8:30am on Saturday, February 22, 2020. Evan Schell, an eye witness, said he saw the whirlpool spiral, roughly the size of a football field, horizontally moving away from the mountain range. “It was definitely strange and caught our eye,” Schell said. “It was so peculiar and didn’t fit any pattern of the clouds. It almost seemed like another life form!”
According to Dr. Jade Wolf, the University of Hawaii professor in meteorology, the phenomenon could in fact be a thunderstorm. “This spiral may have been a result of the formation of a gust front,” Wolf theorized. A gust front is a narrow line of precipitation or airborne particles that form when air is rising, often in advance of a rain or thunderhead.
Others, however, were convinced this was something out of the ordinary, or even supernatural. While intriguing, theories attempting to explain the whirlpool’s origin rely entirely on speculation.
Residents of Hawaii and many who have shared the videos are hoping the scientific community can shed light on the nature of the spiral, which is sure to remain a mystery until further investigations are conducted.
