Penis Cloud Threatens Wales

The denizens of the Northeastern United States know a thing or two about clouds being harbingers of doom after what they went through this past week, and a cloud on the horizon in Wales may be a warning sign of another kind. This penis shaped cloud of smoke appeared in the skies above Port Talbot, causing the residents of the sleepy hamlet to become consumed with what one eyewitness called fits of giggling like school children.

According to The Mirror (link below), there's a completely plausible explanation for this, but that explanation could barely be heard over all the derisive chuckling.

Neighbours posted pictures on a local Facebook community page following the discharge from local steelworks company Tata Steel earlier that day. The otherwise clear blue sky was quite a sight for locals, with the company explaining that the discharge came after a rapid cooling of iron.

“A process took place on Saturday morning. It was managed, according to operational procedures, safely within the works,” a Tata Steel spokesman told Wales Online. He explained that an iron from a blast furnace had been put aside for plating. The works being carried out in Port Talbot is part of Tata Steel’s Strip Products UK business, producing hot-rolled, cold-rolled and hot-dip coated steel.

Sorry, I totally missed all that because I was too busy laughing like Dom DeLuise. Is everything going to be okay? Let's hope so. Wales has been through enough.
