A woman named Theresa Birgin Lucas captured an impressive weather phenomenon that left internet users stunned. The images went viral on social media.
Theresa Birgin Lucas went viral on social media after taking an impressive photo of a rare weather phenomenon. The images were taken in 2022 but continue to spread to this day.
While she was on her way back from visiting her family at the hospital in Rochester, Minnesota, Theresa saw clouds forming in the shape of a massive breaking wave. The phenomenon seemed to flood the road.
The woman shared the photo with her daughter to let her know where she was. It wasn’t until she got home that she realized the magnitude of the event. “It really looks like the sky is going to open up,” Theresa told KVRR.
“I should give credit to my scared daughter,” she joked. Internet users asked if the image was generated using artificial intelligence, but Theresa proved that the photo was taken with an iPhone 8.
“This really makes me feel uncomfortable. I can’t stop seeing a huge, deadly wave,” commented a Reddit user about the phenomenon.
Meteorologist Mariah Bush from KVRR explained that Theresa’s image is “extremely rare” and that “there are clouds I have never seen before.”
Theresa submitted the photo to the Minnesota State Fair competition in 2022 under the title “Ocean in the Sky.”
