I woke up around 1:30 in the morning to booming thunder and a very flashy light show.
We can
get some pretty awesome storms up here, which we normally love to watch. The last storm {click here}, we were sitting
outside with the camera enjoying the light show...not so this time.
This
time, although it was the best nighttime lightning show that we’ve ever had up
here, it was a little too close for comfort.
There were actually a handful of cracks of thunder that made me jump...that’s
never happened before. The booming
thunder actually shook the house, the lightning was quickly turning night into
day and back again, and this time around we enjoyed (although a bit nervously)
the storm from indoors, so no cool photos this time around.
this shows the lightning strikes from this storm if you look closely you will see a black + which marks our place. |
Once
this misty fog cover dissipates a bit, aircraft and fire crews will be out
roaming the area for any possible fires that may have been caused by lightning
strikes. Hopefully there are none!
