Thunder and lightning.

Electricity! In the sky! What does this MEAN?
Probably it means I should turn the computer off lest it explode. My friend in Australia told me that. She always turns her computer off during electrical storms. Mind you, she does have a burn mark on her living room carpet from when an errant part of an electrical storm jumped into her house, which I think is frankly quite rude. This one is rumbling quietly away in the distance. Probably now it'll come racing over going HAHA and teaching me for being lax about the power of the electric storm.
My father once said he saw lightning bolts bouncing off wet tarmac. Was he fibbing?

I saw great lightning in India once where I was on the southern edge of a mountain range and could see pretty much all the sky it was possible to see, and about ten bolts struck altogether in a long line. It was ridiculously exciting.
