Here’s a screen-grab from a video of lightning occuring right over my neighbours’ houses. It’s fascinating to watch the movie because the streak of lightning doesn’t come down from the cloud, rather it actually reaches up from the ground to discharge into the cloud.  The electrical interference caused the faint scanning bars you can see in the picture.  They are only there when the lightning is doing its thing.

Anyway, I’d like to complain about the storm. It seems to have killed one of my DAB radios.
