Lightning in Wyoming

An electrical storm with multiple lightning bolts lit up the night sky in Gillette, Wyoming.

Lightning over Texas

It’s the sheer, awesome power that gets me about lightning, and this forked bolt over Archer, Texas has it all.

There’s a lot going on in this photo.

Firstly the sight of two bolts: one a bolt of lightning, the other the fastest human ever, Usain Bolt.

Then there are the cameramen on the inside of the track, laden with their equipment, seemingly keeping pace with the athletes.

A huge bolt of lightning struck Poole, Dorset, UK recently. Isn’t there some simple way to harness all this energy?

This lightning storm in Kentucky, USA provided some spectacular and dangerous lightning bolts.

We say lightning never strikes twice (in the same place), but in this place it struck thrice (three times) simultaneously.
