Osczevski. Randall J.The 1849 Balvullich Ice Fall
A mass of solid ice weighing nearly a ton fell on a Scottish farm on the estate at Ord during a thunderstorm on July 30, 1849. Theories abound as to its origin, some more fanciful than others. New analysis suggests that the ice originated locally and did not fall from the sky, as has long been thought.
