That is so cool. It looks like an angel coming through the clouds!

If this is a HAARP-related phenomenon, we obviously won't know about it through the major media. No matter what the reasoning though, it certainly is an eye-catching formation.

Yes, the formation may look cool and catch one's eye but I believe its existence is far more sinister. What really interests me is that these 'unique' sights in the sky are becoming more and more frequent, yet we don't even have a name for this phenomenon.

Whoa! cool pics Howard

I think what is amazing is how the pics in Melbourne and the pics in the US look almost identical! Whatever is causing this is a very repeatable phenomena.

SkepticOverlord, Thanks for the edit.

On the news story link I posted, there are also two other stories listed of to the right about other holes. You'd better look them over. This is going to be a common occurance imo.

Maybe it's caused by those pesky cloudbusters.

I live in mobile, and when that happened ,everyone freaked.Its prabbly just the cold air mix in with the hot air or w/e,nothing to be scared of.

That is some seriously weird phenomena...

Excellent find.

maybe it's invisible spaceships

I wonder if there were any crop circles under those holes?

WOW..very cool..funny how uniform and clean the edges are??? and it seems to be a rather recent occurance..hmmmmm...hmmmm...hmmmm things that make you go hmmmmm... i think there is more to this story.......

I think that it is triggered by an aircraft climbing through the cloud layer. The moisture and soot particles from the exhaust trigger the precipitation. There are a couple of photos out there somewhere that demonstrate this rather nicely.

i would think if it was an invisible craft they would not allow themselves to make that mistake twice. the whole purpose of invisibility is to not be seen and by creating that "hole punch" the are drwing attention to themselves. so if it is an invisible craft we are
A. Dealing with some stupid aliens
B. Dealing with a stupid government operation Or
C. One Of The Above Just Feels Like Screwing With The People Of Earth
