Lightning can be scary. One time I was sitting outside on a deck and it started thunder & lightning . I heard a loud crack that resonated in my ear for a week after.. I thought I was hit. Lightning had hit a nearby trailer and the sound was deafening.
@reheadpei I know what you mean, it is deafening when it hits close to you, one day I was under a bridge waiting on the storm to get over. I was on the north side and could see the lightening hitting the sand on the southwest side of the bridge, it was very loud, I could see it come up out from the ground and down from the sky and meet, I never knew it did this. Also lightening does hit the same spot more than once. It is not something to take for granite.
@redheadpei thank you, the lightening was not in the same day, it has happened 2 x's like that, in the last 35 years. It is very scary.
