over the catatumbo river, there is a storm that never ceases. Starting at 7 p.m. every night Lightning Crashes over the water for 10 hours, 260 nights each year, nobody knows for sure. Why? It happens up until recently. The leading theory was that it had something to do with uranium in the Bedrock, although scientists are starting to doubt that today. The leading theory is a complicated one. It posits that the shape of the mountains causes warm trade winds To collide with cold air from the Andes that Collision is then fueled by the rapidly evaporating water below
and may be seen from a nearby oil field. Nobody actually knows for sure, though. Everything about it, including one instance in 2010, is mysterious, including why it occurs.When it inexplicably stopped one day, the storm just died down without explanation and seemed, for a while, to be over.
Then, after six weeks of silence, it sparked up again and has been raging ever since.
