Just came my closest ever to a lightning bolt, and I've experienced some close ones. Was at a softball practice in Ludlow, and the tumultuous sky, darkening off to the northwest and north had my attention-- and checking the NWS saw there was a tornado warned cell to the northwest. So practice over  I decided to try a little intercept for whatever might be, and was driving my appropriately named F150 Ford Lightning north along Lyons street towards Granby with the front windows open.

That route affords some pretty good views off to the west, and I could see the ragged lined edge of the rain off there, but though under forbidding skies-- not a drop yet where I was. Then, I swear, not 20 or 30 feet off, directly to the right out my front side window a sizzling bolt-- bamm-- and I could feel the shock of it- or was it just the adrenaline buzz of such a close hit?

Just reminder again that especially in dynamic developing situations, bolts out of the blue can and do happen. I continued on, a half mile or so further, then another close bolt, and then blotto, visibility down to near zero. As I write back home in Monson, we just had another strike not far to the south that got our dog's attention. All in all I would say aside being ground zero in the May microburst, this has been the most consequential thunderstorm event in a summer that has been woefully lacking in such.
