Some
quick facts about lightning: A typical lightning bolt lasts about a
quarter of a second, can reach 27.000 degrees Celsius (that’s hotter
than the sun) and, on average, injures more than five people a day.
Surprisingly, the majority of people who ride the lightning
survive. Even more surprisingly, you’re probably better off taking a
direct hit to the head than a strike that hits the ground and then
enters you from the bottom up.

But the most important fact about lightning is that it looks totally bitchin’. And that’s why Marko KoroÅ¡ec’s Weather Photo Gallery is such an absolute pleasure. He has a section devoted to lightning, including this great series of lightning bolts crackling around the Bay of Piran. There are also special sections for sunsets, clouds, and other weather phenomena. Most of the photos are taken in Slovenia, often in the town of Žirje,
which is near Italy and the coast. (His hometown, I presume.) The
quality is consistently excellent. It’s a fantastic collection.

(Thanks Mlaq!)
