High-velocity clouds that are colliding with Milky-Way material in the anticenter were observed in the 21-cm line of neutral hydrogen, using the Arecibo telescope with a system temperature of 40 K. We confirm the reported (Mirabel, 1982) positional and kinetic correlations between a high-velocity cloud that is infalling with a velocity of −200 km s−1 and a strong disturbance in the interstellar medium (see figure 1).
