Mysterious weather phenomena

Only the Hippopotamus construction worker at the start of Fritz the Cat could relieve himself continuously of that much from above.

Skeptics have apparently only gotten around to addressing the easy ones, like this: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/togo-r...ery-video/

If there was an object or anything above that could be the source, surely the spectators could see it. Can't even view the stars at night in a city, but the other video is taken during the daytime, and observers are glancing up and around and looking bewildered at the end. There are more "one-spot raining" videos following that one.

Be way more interesting if you were being bathed in isolated sunshine.....at night.

That metabunk link somebody dropped on that page claims that it's a drop of water on the lens, distorting the Moon's light (if that is the Moon) as well as blurring the structures below it (revealed when zooming in). But are those two people (the voices we hear) not looking at the actual scene itself, minus what such a smartphone with an obscured lens would be recording?

There's a part in the video where the "camera" is moved away from the Moon. It's a shame in the slowed-down analysis of the original video by the metabunk guy below that he didn't also zero in on that section the same way to see if background details were still being distorted/blurred via the proposed drop of water.

At least three possibilities:

(1) This "couple" literally never observed the non-electronically processed scene itself (which would seem utterly ridiculous behavior). 

(2) They redubbed the audio using video editing software before the footage was uploaded, to deceptively suggest they were also seeing the green "aura" directly with their own eyes.

(3) The green light was indeed there in the actual scene, and it's just a coincidence that a drop of water on a lens experimentally happens to superficially replicate a real phenomenon they watched (with regard to the other videos the metabunk guy uses to demonstrate such).

Coincidentally, this seems to be a banner winter for it...

Unusual ‘Light Pillars’ Filling The Night Sky With Stunning Shows
https://www.inquisitr.com/6477946/light-pillar/

INTRO: The colder temperatures have brought something a little extra dazzling to the night sky for residents across the northern U.S. Hundreds have witnessed a phenomenon known as “light pillars,” which are vertical shafts of light appearing as beams that shoot up into the night sky, according to CNN.

“It was almost like I was looking at the northern lights because they were bouncing, moving and changing in appearance,” National Weather Service Meteorologist Bill Taylor said of the anomaly, which he photographed in North Platte, Nebraska, earlier in the week, CNN reported... (MORE)
