Lightning!

[pyat]

They weren't kidding about intense lightning. I've counted 50+ flashes in a minute.






Some frames from video I shot, showing lightning striking nearby - less than 500 metres. These was two seperate strikes, though it seemed like just one to me.

Yeah, it's funny, but used to think that the land across the river there was a whole nuther continent. Seriously! For some reason, I imagined wholly different weather patterns. This despite the fact that I've driven to Toronto and Niagra a good many times. No matter, Canada was still a far off under the sway the metric system.

Metric. Making things 1.6 times further away than they actually are! Science!

Yeah that's how they knew where to put the border, donchaknow? Soon as you cross it, the temperature drops a good sixty degrees or more!
