Mysterious Pillars Of Light Rise In Ohio (Pictures)

A local weatherman says these images, captured by locals in Mansfield, Ohio is a weather phenomona caused by ice crystals in the air.  What I want to know is what do your eyes tell you?  As far as I can tell these pictures were taken on a nearly cloudless night.  So where then do ice crystals come into play Mr. Weatherman?  I’d love to know your thoughts on this. Please comment below.  -Mort

  • Could be rare examples of earthquake lights -

    1906, about 100 km northwest of San Francisco, a couple saw streams of light running along the ground two nights preceding that region’s great earthquake.
    /earthquakes/2014/01/mysterious-earthquake-lights-linked-to-rifts-2483590.html

    1923. Japan, Tokyo and Yokohama, destroyed by Great Kanto earthquake, 150,000 killed, “weird magnetic effects” noted.

    An earthquake light is an unusual luminous aerial phenomenon that reportedly appears in the sky at or near areas of tectonic stress, seismic activity, or volcanic eruptions. Once commonly challenged, it was not until photographs were taken during the Matsushiro earthquake swarm in Nagano, Japan (which occurred from 1965 through 1967) that the seismology community acknowledged their occurrence.
    /earthquakes/2014/01/mysterious-earthquake-lights-linked-to-rifts-2483590.html

    Earthquake lights from Tagish Lake, Yukon-Alaska border region, around the 1st of July, probably 1972 or 1973 (exact date unknown). Estimated size: 1m diameter. Closest orbs slowly drifted up the mountain to join the more distant ones.
    /earthquakes/2014/01/mysterious-earthquake-lights-linked-to-rifts-2483590.html

    On November 12, 1988, a bright purple-pink globe of light moved through the sky along the St. Lawrence River near the city of Quebec, 11 days before a powerful quake. /earthquakes/2014/01/mysterious-earthquake-lights-linked-to-rifts-2483590.html

    In which case a big seismic event could be due, maybe something similar to the 1811/12 US Earthquake when the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers run backward for three days.

    Nothing mystical here. Quite common here in Finland.

  • The weatherman said it was ice crystals, NOT clouds.

    Which word did you not understand OP?

    It can still be a clear and cloudless sky and there be ice crystals floating about the in the wind. Once they had some lights shining on them they lit up the sky.

    Wow, OP missed that grade school science class so he could play football….

    No, naturally occuring weather phenomenon. They are cool looking, though. Or, are they the lizard aliens shooting down their particle rays from their cloaked cloudships? YOU DECIDE! LOLOLOLOLOL.

  • I live in Lancaster, Ohio and saw the same lights this morning. I actually thought they were northern lights at first. What I noticed is they were only located over lighted city areas. Once I got in the country there was nothing. My conclusion is that they were caused by ground based lights shone straight up that were reflected off of…ice crystals. Hell I aint even a weatherman and yet I figured it out myself. I might be a hilljack but I aint stupid.

    On a side note…no UFOs, angels, fallen angels, star gates, worm holes, or chupacabras were seen any where near the light columns. I was sober at the time, wasn’t probed, and did not experience any weird time shift. On the other hand I was pretty cold because it was friggin cold out…cold enough for ice crystals I might add. -4°F my ass…roll on Groundhog Day already.

  • ” So where then do ice crystals come into play Mr. Weatherman?”

    When there are no clouds and more light? When there is ice? When there no clouds to keep the heat in?

    Interesting photos though.
