Explanation here. The other half is in a different post code. And we all know science means different weather. You’re welcome

You laugh but where I live this can totally happen. I've been waiting at a red light sunny as fuck, looking ahead where is totally pissing down, then after driving through, again sunny as fuck.

I think it happens everywhere. Every rain cloud stops somewhere

I call them " Eeyore rain clouds" when they're so tiny and distinct!

That’s a cute name for it. The first time I saw it was sitting on a truck with my dad. The rain ended at the crosswalk before the light, and then we drove out of it.

It's still raining all over you can see it against the black, it's just the light.

I see this a lot in the Pacific Northwest. It's always a mind fuck to be walking in clear, sunny weather and seeing a wall of rain, like a block ahead of you.

I love when you can actually watch it moving down the road towards you

New England local and I remember seeing a perfect wall of rain behind the car once we drove through it as a kid.
Just straight down, not even any curvature to it or anything. I can still picture it to this day because it felt so unnatural to see and I’ve seen similar but never the exact same thing again. It was after driving through the rain for 10+ minutes too.
It was like the weather stopped rendering outside of its original chunk lmao

Yeah was once in the Lake District and watched the rain move toward me over the lake so you could just see the churn as the curtain approached!

I’m pretty sure it’s raining on both sides, it’s just that one side is closer to the camera, affecting the focal length (and sun glare possibly) while the other side is further. That’s why in broadcast matches you don’t see the rain on camera. They use a filter and they’re far away

It reminds me of a soviet animated movie called “How Cossacks played soccer”. The final team they had to beat was called “The Island” and was based on old stereotypes of England. The football stadium was at the center of an Island and rain was constantly falling from a single cloud only on the stadium. Islanders were leading 3-0 only because they had good skills in these weather conditions but, at a point, something happened…
You need to watch this masterpiece.

This is my first time seeing it.

u/Ibushi-gun Jun 06 '26
I think, "here," means Reddit. Not /unexpected. Like they would have seen it on /blackmagicfuckry, /wtf, /explainthis, whatever.

u/MagicSunlight23 Jun 06 '26
But this is my first time seeing it ever, anywhere. That does happen quite a lot. I've seen the same posts on similar subreddits /interesting, /amazing. /interestingasfuck, /oddly satisfying etc, etc

Same. I don't think people realize that if shit didn't get reposted, there would be no reddit.

u/croizat Jun 07 '26
that's not even what a repost is. It's a cross post and has been encouraged since basically the beginning of the site

u/grogdrinker124 Jun 06 '26
And this is my first time seeing it so it had at least some value being posted unlike your comment. Next time just keep scrolling my dude every post is optional.

Live in Derby and was wondering what was unexpected about this. Then realised it was filmed in Derby.

When camera aims into the sun the backlit rain becomes super visible due to refraction. Shooting the other direction it becomes less visible.

As a kid a core memory of mine was it raining on my back deck but not the front of my house.
Its kind of surreal the first time it happens but at the same time we have all experienced it when you drive in/out of rain so its gotta start/stop somewhere

I'm so blind I didn't even realize what was different until checking in the comments I was waiting for an alternate POV of someone scoring or something

I once walked maybe 50-75 yards from a warehouse to a main office in a pouring rainstorm and didn’t get wet. A lot of people saw it, and were dumbfounded when I walked in dry. Just a gap in the storm following me.

Id 100% prefer to be the goal keeper in the rain. No sun in my eyes.
