Meteorologist Bill Jacquemin. His profile here seems a little, well...hyped. http://www.ctweather.com/meet-ctweathers-team He has quite the vivid description of supposedly getting hit by lightning. I'm not sure if I got struck if I'd be able to recount the specifics like that. It happens kind of fast I would presume. He created some weather service back in the 80s/90 too, and for some reason he found it important enough to put it on the COOP form. That 106F ob smells all the way up here to NH now.
