Bemused motorists were forced to take evasive action when an avalanche of apples descended from the sky just after the rush-hour.
One theory is that freak weather conditions may have caused a vortex of water pressure, which is when wind and rain form a powerful vacuum that can lift items and dump them up to 100 miles away.
The current of air could have lifted the fallen fruit from a garden or orchard and released it over the Coundon area of Coventry.
Another theory is that the apples could have fallen from a plane.
