OP: The dragon is controlling weather again.
Several days ago on May 2, 2025, Xi’an experienced a rare storm with heavy rain and lightning at night. Multiple people filmed 龙Long, unidentified creature moving through the sky—its motion and speed matched exactly how chinese dragons (Chinese Long ≠ Western dragons. Same word, different beings, 'dragon' is just for convenience.) are described in legends and myths. Then, in the early hours of May 5, Chengdu also had an unusually strong storm with wild winds and lightning. Locals there caught the same 'dragon' on video too.
The discussion is super active on Xiaohongshu and Douyin. If you're interested, try searching these chinese keywords: ‘西安 见龙’ (Xi'an Long sighting), ‘成都 见龙’ (Chengdu Long sighting), ‘女生宿舍 龙’ (girls' dorm Long video), or ‘高邮龙吸水’ (Gaoyou waterspout). The Xi'an one has multiple angles, so there's no way it's fake. I didn’t include the Xi'an one in the compilation video because there’s just too much footage.
People online compiled past Long sightings, and these are all highly credible (the clips were checked no Photoshop). The most convincing ones are still the Gaoyou waterspout livestream and the college girls’ dorm footage. Check the earlier post about 龙Long for reference.
Personally, the most mind-blowing one is that girls' dorm footage. The original’s on Bilibili—actually super clear and intense. You see a girl filming a storm from her balcony when she spots the Long, freaks out, and yells for her roommate (who chickens out). Then the Long seems to notice her—there’s this creepy staring moment—and she bolts inside. The Long’s eyes glow, and its head, mouth, and claws match ancient paintings and texts perfectly. Zero chance it’s fake. Even today’s tech or AI couldn’t pull that off, let alone a crappy non-smartphone back then.
