Bizarre clouds over Bermuda Triangle may finally solve longtime mystery Clouds with sharp hexagonal features can cause sudden microbursts with winds over 170 mph.

 

The Bermuda Triangle is a region that hardly requires an introduction. This three-cornered navigational menace stretches from the tip of Florida, to Puerto Rico, and to the island of Bermuda, and is reputably responsible for the mysterious disappearance of numerous aircraft and ships throughout history.
Conspiracy theorists and pseudoscientists have long blamed these disappearances on everything from alien visitation to supernatural forces, but scientists may have finally solved the mystery, reports Aol UK.
Satellite meteorologists observing the region have noticed a prevalent weather phenomenon there that involves highly-unusual, sharply hexagonal clouds. A closer look at what was happening within these hexagons, which measure from 25-55 miles across, revealed that they were a symptom of sudden microbursts. It's as if all the air in the sky suddenly drops, like a bomb.
