Lightning Strike Up Close

One frame of this short video is just beautiful.

yep. I was riding a bike in a park when a freak storm came up, hail and everything. Lightning began striking the lake that the bike trail went around and as I hid in a small cement bathroom about 20 feet off the lake I watched the water get struck a number of times. All the big fish were jumping with the hail, it was wild.

happened to me once, in Florida.
one of those quick, freak storms you get, down there near Miami.

i was sitting on my 2nd-floor balcony, kickin' back with a beer, watching this storm roll in, and the school across the street got struck, very suddenly, at roughly the same distance.

the sound is indistinguishable from a bomb, going off.
