Cloud to ground lightning strike

[Trappe]

I managed to capture this today. Taken from the security of my shed ;-) edit…. Just listening to the radio on a discussion on lightning. Apparently only 10% strikes the ground.

Wooden?

And your point is ?

Tongue in cheek, if your shed was made of wood then it might not provide much security from a strike ... why did my comment offend?

House or shed then it’s a gamble as to where there is a strike. No offence it was a grumpy response from me

Disclaimer: I work for Biral as their UK Sales Manager and that obviously makes me biased but the information is correct and up-to-date.
