On September 16th, a breathtaking scene of “dark clouds pressing down on the city” appeared in Yongcheng, Shangqiu, Henan Province, China. The thick black clouds hung low, resembling a scene from doomsday.
That day, a student captured the entire process of the dark clouds pressing down on the campus before the heavy rain. The video shows thick black clouds rapidly moving in the low sky, turning the entire sky pitch black in an instant, creating a sense of oppression and a terrifying atmosphere like a doomsday movie.
According to a witness, Mr. Wang, who spoke to Bloomberg News, from the moment he saw the clouds until they passed by, it took about 20 minutes. When the clouds were directly overhead, the entire sky had turned completely dark, and then it started to pour heavily, especially heavy.
