Lightning happens at this time of year. Florida is flat...go figure what it will hit.
Lightning is part of life in Florida. Another palm, or Pine bites the dust.
The thing about lightning is you can be in what appears to be pretty decent weather and have lightning strike. I think people assume you have to be standing in the middle of a thunderstorm to be hit by lightning. It can come out of seemingly nowhere. When I was in high school a football team in our city was practicing on a field and they heard a storm way off in the distance, yet it struck the field and killed a couple players. Being a native Floridian, I have a healthy respect for it, yet I see golfers on the course, with their clubs raised in the air during lightning storms...go figure.
