In a report that will probably seem familiar to readers of Charles Fort, thousands of earthworms are being reported to have fallen from the sky onto the snows of a Norwegian mountain. At first they seemed to be dead, but some moved when touched.

The newspaper account mentions that many other events of this kind have been reported as far back as ancient times. (The Roman naturalist Pliny the Elder records falls of frogs and fish in his Natural History.)
Norwegian scientists are predictably speculating about tornadoes and waterspouts, as many others have before them.
As Fort recognized, these are classic anomalous events, that just don't seem to fit, somehow.
