Yeah, it's pretty much daylight.. I was looking at the weather forecast and it looked like Indy got it pretty bad.

The lightning strike rate is highest in the area from Johannesburg, South Africa to Harare, Zimbabwe. It is really unsettling until you get used to it, when the summer storms come. Something like 350 hits per square kilometre per year. Sounds like a mortar attack and you have to unplug everything of value in your home because even surge protectors can get blown out.
Guys, keep inside. Lightning kills and we need everyone to click through on the BP ads for the revenue.

I didn't see it because I was passed out, but I did wake up and hear it. Sounds like I missed a show
