Bizarre colorful (luminous/glowing) cloud
phenomenon in the sky was observed about 30
mins before the May 12, 2008 Sichuan
earthquake took place. This was recorded in
Tianshui, Gansu province ~450km northeast of
epicenter, by someone using a cell phone.

See similar cloud formation captured 20
minutes later in a different city, ~200km
east of this location:

These clouds seemed to be glowing or somewhat
luminous and seemed to resemble some
characteristics of the Auroras. I am not sure
exactly what they were or whether they indeed
had anything to do with the quake. I am no
expert anyways. See if any scientists are
willing to give a full explanation.
If such phenomenon can be proved for its
connection with earthquake occurrences, maybe
they could be used as warning signs and would
be life saving. If not, just learn these
clouds as yet another rare atmospheric
phenomenon and no need to panic when seeing
them.
After all, this might well be just a rare
atmospheric phenomenon occurred by
coincidence. Though, just wondering if
there's any possibility the formation of such
rare clouds be catalyzed by any event??
