The Isha storm continues to make headlines! With its high winds and intense rainfall, Ireland has experienced a very violent climatic phenomenon. Although the country suffered its share of damage on this occasion, Storm Isha also produced some unique phenomena. These include the giant foam ball, which has been spotted on the Cliffs of Moher. A unique phenomenon, captured on video!
After a series of storms in Ireland, a surprising and enchanting sight was revealed in County Clare, Ireland. On the site of the famous Cliffs of Moher, a kind of snowball and foam has formed.
Floating in the air, this cluster seemed to whirl in the void at the whim of the ocean winds. A pure marvel that you can discover thanks to Irishman Cormac McGinley, who managed to capture the phenomenon on video:
A Giant Seafoam Snow globe.
Big seas following Storm Isha and Storm Jocelyn have whipped the sea and seaweed along the coast into a froth. The mix of waves and onshore wind blows the foam up the cliff faces, putting on this show.

This phenomenon is particularly rare, and is the result of a combination of factors linked to the Isha storm. The climatic depression, coupled with ocean winds, snowfall and air temperature, contributed to the formation of this strange “ball” (nicknamed“Giant Seafoam snow globe” in English).
It was a lovely, short-lived show that only lasted a few minutes, but it shows that even the most difficult climatic phenomena can reserve their share of pleasant surprises!
