We had a NASTY storm blow through on saturday (went to see Nine inch Nails that night to)Well, me and the GF were coming home from my neices B-day and we ran headlong into the storm, we knew it was coming and had to rush home for the dogs and the one open window (which happened to be in the computer room..DOH)It was one of the most intense 10min of storm we've seen yet this year... Well, coming down the street, we come to an intersection and I see a flash and in the corner of my right eye I see a burst of sparks... I look over just in time to see them dying out as they were falling... I blinked when I saw the flash, so i missed the actual "bolt" making contact... Never seen that before... in all of my soon to be 35yrs...
