I only looked at this story, HERE, because the same thing happened here a few days ago. My mom gathered some of the blue balls and wanted to send them to the FBI. I told her the FBI couldn't give a shit less what's in our garden, unless you can smoke it. I touched them and smelled them and concluded that they were the soil-less gel balls that come in decorative glass planters. Shrugs. Someone must have spilled them in the trash and somehow they got sucked up into the sky and came down with rain and hail. Or, Fran Dresher's right and aliens are coming to get us. I threw them away and I couldn't care less what they are. Personally, I've seen much weirder shit. This only rates a 2 on my weird scale.

The day it rained blue balls of jelly

hmm they actually look like these things that Ashleigh and Trenton got from my mom for Christmas. They came in crystal shapes and just plain round balls and were labeled as a "Science Experiment" for kids. You stick them in a bowl of water and they start out really small and in a few hours grow to 10 times their size and if you throw them they bounce. The kids loved them, however, if you accidentally step on one they're a bitch to clean up.
I thought it wasw a big blue diamond. lol
In the past, it seems this kind of stuff was blamed on bathroom spillage from airplanes. But they are pretty and do have a diamond or topaz look.
They're squishy.
You said blue balls.
Bevis.
EEeeekk ... sorry I would not have touched them ... envisioning SYFY show now.

Yes, they do look like the water balls for floral design and soil amendment. A coworker brought some to work for us to play with. I wonder if the material was already in their garden before the storm? Didn't say that he saw the blue spheres falling from the sky, but as light as they are dehydrated, it would certainly by plausible. I know if I have a houseplant die I dump the dirt in my garden or compost pile to add to my garden later.
The ones we found won't dehydrate. I still think they got sucked up in a mini tornado. It's Iowa, everything gets sucked up.
wish vivian would get sucked up....though i think she'd get tossed back out....even a tornado would reject her.....
