For the second time in just two months, a massive chunk of ice fell from the sky and tore a hole through the roof of a home in California.
San Bernadino residents Claudell and Odell Curry say that their Sunday evening TV watching was suddenly interrupted when they heard a "horrendous boom" that rocked the house.
Uncertain as to what had just happened, they began looking around the home and were stunned to discover a rather large hole in the ceiling of their bedroom.
Strewn across their bed were pieces of insulation and drywall as well as the critical clue which explained the tremendous crash: chunks of ice.
Described as remarkably heavy, the frozen material is believed to have fallen from an airplane passing overhead and, fortunately, appeared to be white, which indicates that it did not come from the vessel's lavatory.
Nonetheless, the Curry family is not too thrilled with having a hole in their ceiling due to the strange event, but are at least thankful that they were not in bed when the ice plummeted through the home.
What is rather remarkable about the incident is that, despite claims by the FAA that these types of incidents are incredibly rare, an eerily similar event took place just last month in another southern California community.
Should more families fall victim to the falling ice in the coming weeks and months, we may start to wonder if this is less a freak occurrence and more something truly weird worth losing sleep over.
