Summary

We tackle rains and snows of coal, grains, frogs, "fishes", and SNAKES in this episode, Part 4 of our deep dive into Charles Fort's The Book of the Damned. Can "whirlwinds" account for all this biological material falling to earth? Can storms keep fish up in the skies long enough for them to begin to rot? Maybe. Or maybe something much more bizarre is happening in these instances of the damned.
