I'm currently blind, and seeing light spots, thunder bold hit somewhere close while i was almost home, had to stop the car on those country roads in the dark, and i could not see a thing except white grayish blur for about 20 minutes. I have a new found fear from thunderstorms now.

To add to this, it wasn't exactly conforthing hearing the bolts breaking sound barries, scared the **** out of me, at one point my car radio went nutts when the the thunder just crakled the crap out of the sky, never herd it so loud, seriously!

This truely worries me about un balanced weather patters. rant over.
