Heavy rain is falling in Moomin Valley, and the environment has turned grey and dusty. Moomintroll and Sniff embark on a journey to the observatory to find out what is causing these natural phenomena. On the way, they are joined by Snufkin, who tells them about the comet. The trio encounters many adventures and meets new friends. Snufkin tells Moomintroll about the Snork Maiden, and Moomintroll dreams of her.

At the observatory, our heroes learn that the comet will brush the Earth in a few days’ time! They decide to hurry back to Moomin Valley, but first they must find the Snork Maiden!

Moomintroll discovers the Snork Maiden, who has been snared by an angostura plant. He saves her and asks her to come with him to Moomin Valley. The travellers are invited to attend a dance, but they soon notice that all the waterways have dried up and that locusts are eating everything in their path.

Back in Moomin Valley, the family retreats to a cave to shelter from the comet. The comet hurtles towards a seemingly sure collision with the Earth, but at the last minute it misses by a hair. The water returns to the sea, and the sun comes out.
