Saw this picture and ... had to share the oddness.

Don't lean on a metal fence in a thunderstorm, kids!

That site recommends a couple of times "Wait 30 minutes until after the last thunder crack before " going back outside.

Does anyone really do that? Are storms in other parts of the country different from storms in MA? It always seems pretty obvious around here when a lightening storm is over.

One of the things I miss about living in Atlanta is that the thunderstorms here in Boston are much less common, and even when they happen, they usually just don't compare to the typical intensity in Atlanta.

So, yes, at least somewhat. I also wouldn't be surprised if flatland areas (of which I have very little experience) are even more different.

Having lived the first 9 years of my life in Kansas and the next 9 in Ohio, I can say that Massachusetts really doesn't have much in the way of storms. Also, particularly in Kansas, the storms are often extremely scattered, and it wasn't uncommon for our back yard to be inundated while our front yard was bone dry, or vise verse. As for lightning, well, I cringe anytime I see someone walking around with an umbrella in a thunderstorm, but perhaps it's best if they get out of the gene pool sooner rather than later...

What they said. Storms here just don't compare!

You laugh, but my friend is really sad because one of her sheep died that way last night! Got its head stuck in the fence.

I really need a gloomier icon for this kind of thing.
