Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsRight now going through one of the most scariest thunder and lightning storms ever.
Constant huge bolts of lightning, thunder crashing right overhead, one right after the other. Going on for about 1/2 hour. Radar says a bit more to go. But in all my years I have never heard thunder or seen lightning like this.
Damn scary. cat went and hid in the closet.
Lost electric and internet. On my iPhone.
oh good, electrics back!
Thanks for letting me share.

(33,505 posts)out my window one night several weeks ago as it was moving closer and getting more spectacular with lightning and louder thunder. Then I saw a bolt hit a cell tower right behind the tree line next to the retention pond behind my house. Closest I've ever been to a lightning strike. Damn scary!
I can't imagine experiencing that over and over for half an hour. Yikes!
