Lightning - 'MegaFlash' Records

[Em in Ohio]

Lightning & thunder last night in Ohio rattled my windows and vibrated my floors. It might not have set a record, but it was the longest event that I could remember. Record-busting 'mega-flash' distance and duration can now be tracked by new satellite technology.

We had a bad one three nights ago. It wasn’t a quick moving storm either. Many strikes close to home.

I'm in Ohio and I didn't feel anything but did hear the thunder and saw the flashes. I enjoy a good storm...unless, that is, it's very dangerous!

I used to love storms, until trees started falling all around me. My house is old and was not well-constructed to begin with, so things shake, rattle, and roll!

I am on the first floor of an apt. complex but it's an old building. We get trees coming down here, too. I think most of the oldest ones have come down as I don't see much news about it anymore. But then "other stuff" is taking up the news now, too.
