China: Localized Storm Splits Street in Half With Rain on One Side, Dry on the Other

This is the striking moment that a sudden localized storm turned one street into two distinct weathers, one side was drenched by heavy rain, while the other side remained completely dry. On June 12, 2025, in Shanxi, Taiyuan, the video captured one half of a street was swept by torrential rain, while the opposite side stayed untouched. The pedestrians and quick-moving cars seeking shelter on the rainy side, umbrellas opened hastily. The juxtaposition was startling, raindrops visibly stopped at an invisible boundary, creating two contrasting microclimates within mere meters of each other. The video ended with the camera panning across the street, capturing the stark contrast one last time before the rain slowly faded away.

China: Spectacular Virga Clouds Captured Over Jinan City Amid Sudden Hailstorm

On the evening of May 18, 2024, residents in Jinan, Shandong, China, captured moments of localized rain clouds, which appeared like a delicate veil connecting the sky and the earth, as the sudden hail hit the city. The video shows the raindrops showering from the dense clouds accompanied by terrifying lightning. Zheng Lina, the chief forecaster at the Jinan Meteorological Observatory, explained in a local interview that this meteorological marvel is called a "virga", which occurs when raindrops evaporate continuously as they fall, creating streak-like suspensions. The virga is often observed during high temperatures in summer, which leads to localized convective weather conditions.
