It's obvious you people are trying to avoid the inevitable answer here!
There's a thing that you're missing... a thing that believers like to miss: psychology.
These two stories were published a few days after the event.
Any testimony that is provided afterwards will most surely be tainted by these reports. And our minds are fickle things... our memories, on which we depend so much, can be altered or enhanced, thus leaving us sure about some event... even though it didn't happen as we remember it.
Have a read of articles like this http://edition.cnn.com/2013/05/18/health...index.html
Something must have happened, surely. But I wouldn't put it past some atmospheric lensing effect that caused the sun to seemingly wobble, probably caused by the rapidly evaporating rain water.
Anything that is said beyond that, will either have been suggested by this news story, or caused by looking at the sun for too long... or straight out lies. Any of these effects (and even all combined) is far more likely to have occurred than any supernatural sun manipulation with only locally visible effects.
So, next time you think about a miracle evidenced by testimonies and nothing else, remember that all of them can be stained.... certainly, that makes them way less than "undeniable".
