Adventurers have stumbled across a cave so enormous that it has its own weather system, complete with wispy clouds and lingering fog inside vast caverns. A team of expert cavers and photographers have been exploring the vast cave system in the Chongquing province of China and have taken the first-ever photographs of the natural wonder.

They were amazed to discover the entrance to the hidden Er Wang Dong cave system and were stunned when they managed to climb inside to see a space so large that it can contain a cloud.

To Er is human, but to Wang Dong is devine.

“Er Wang Dong” sometimes translates as “ Cave of the Two Kings”.

To make it even more complicated, Laz also has added his own Dong to the mix, which also has its own weather system.

I thought down there would be “millions of degrees” as Algore once claimed.

When I read the title, I at first thought it was bad news about the GOP House caucus.

It has it’s own weather system? Gee, it isn’t possible that we can have weather that isn’t affected by manmade globull$h!t warming. The earth’s weather system is made up of many microclimates that are too vast and diverse to be directly affected by man.

I understand that when the 1930s Navy had dirigibles, the hangers in Lakehurst were so large, it often rained inside.

That’s incredible!!!!!!!

Off topic but that’s where my son was stationed when he was in the Marines. I’ve never been there myself.

Those two pics with peeps in the water...

Don’t they watch movies? Don’t they know that’s how people get their legs ripped off at the knees by unknown, man-eating monsters?

Sheesh.
