These stunning and bizzare V-shaped columns of light with funnels were seen over Blair Nebraska January 25 2011.They are extremely unusual. What makes this ever weirder is that I was reminded by a RealUfos reader that the highly controversial Psychic Blossum Goodchild predicted large columns and pillars of light to be a sign of some sort.. Considering her reputation after the failed October 14th Predictions, whether you choose to believe or not is up to you but the columns of light are very unsual indeed:
These light pillars are not just rare, they are exceptional!" declares atmospheric optics expert Les Cowley. "Ordinary pillars are produced by plate-shaped ice crystals roughly half way between you and the light source. These are different. Their rarely seen flared tops show that they were made by column-shaped crystals drifting slowly downwards and aligned horizontal by air resistance."
"The flares are a form of the upper tangent arcs that we sometimes see in daytime halo displays," he continues. "But even more exotic, some flares have a second one nested within them! Some ice crystal columns do not rotate but instead keep two of their prism faces improbably horizontal to give us the very uncommon Parry arcs of solar halo displays. The nested flares here are amazing and probably the light halo equivalent of Parry arcs." source

An amazing sight,and so clear too!
I pondered on this,for a little bit!....?
The Psychic, Blossum Goodchild;
An honest lady,in "her belief!"
I think she was "Duped!" on her
October 14th. Prediction,and took the can for it,so to speak!
Hence; her highly controversial Psychic ability,with every one!
But,you know what?....I think she deserves a second chance!? just because, we can "all" get it rong sometime,and not all from our own making!...She was let down!...Duped!..AND..she did apologize! I think she ment well! but it didn't came pass!....?
manuttiLooks like a photographic anomaly. If it is a time-lapse shot this effect is not unusual....
I see these pillars very often during the winter when there is snow mist.
Is there really room on THIS site for the Blossom Goodchild's of this world??
To 4th.Comment:
Well!...she had us on the edge of our seats for awhile,& then the big letdown!:/
If the "Extraterrestrial Psychic ability" is excepted, as a way of
communication by the ETs,and we've all heard about this! then there must be room,for the "Goodchilds" of this world,in due consideration of their Psychic ability!...?
if they could only get it right!?
I have seen pillars of light just like these many times during cold weather. Interesting , but not ET's
must of been the same light that reflected off the swamp gas! amazing!
