New to me, and glad to have seen it. I surely don't want to rain (or hail) on your parade, but do tend to agree that this was pretty much off-topic. You've had terrestrial sky phenomena such as sundogs before, so this was not utterly OT, though. It was so unusual, dramatic, and rather scary, however, that I surely can't complain.
Your scope seems to be that of what can be seen in the sky, but with meteorological phenomena having much less emphasis.
Surely, there could be no harm in an occasional link to extraordinary items that you think your followers might find interesting.
Nexus 7 2 here (love it!); video rendered just fine. One eye is nearsighted, which helps a lot.
I love APOD, and have its icon on my home screen. Also liked your inventive topical robot filter.
