Talking "Fire Balls" being shot out of 727's

I have often heard of 727's blowing "fireballs" out of their engines on occasion. I believe it was usually caused by hot OAT's and high humidity??? Just wandering if anybody knows why this would occur or what kind of buildup happens inside of the engines to cause this spectacle!?!
--Thanks
