Last week I read the
Out of the blue : a history of lightning : science, superstition, and amazing stories of survival by John Friedman. It is an informative look at lightning with lots of stories of real people who have experienced lightning up close and personal. Now I have always loved thunderstorms but this book freaked me out a little.
Today didn't help:
- This morning on the news there was a report of a young man being killed by lightning at Jackfish Lake, Saskatchewan
- This evening a brief thunderstorm knocked the lights out at work for a second and set off the fire alarm.
I'm crawling under the bed now.
