I live in Wichita, KS, probably one of the more stormy places on this whole freakin' planet. Anyway, I'm driving down I-235 on the way home one night, and lightning strikes a street light not more than 60 feet from me, and the whole highway went dark. I already could only barely see from all the rain in the first place, and now its pitch black save my headlights.
Reminds me, my girlfriend's car got struck by lightning as she was driving down the high way with her parents about 50 miles north of Wichita, totally killed the computer, melted the antenna and blew out some of the tires, hehe.
