Fish on dry land

Dozens of fish were found in gardens and on roofs in the borough of 

Newham, East London, following a thunderstorm on the night of 27-28 May 

1984. The Natural History Museum identified the fish as flounder and smelt; 

there had been no reports of waterspouts in the Thames that night. And on 17 

May 1996, a fall of more than 20 small fish was witnessed at Hatfield in 

Hertfordshire. Although they were dead, they seemed to be fresh and were 

warm to the touch.
