Lightning striking pool beg towers just there during the thunderstorm

1. Wow! That’s really lovely. I’m confused as I don’t knowing much about it. With the heat, is the lighting a result too, of humidness in the sky? It’s feels really strange. I wonder is anyone knows much about how it works? I understand the physics I think, but not really in weather way?

   Anyway it brings a lot of awe.

2. I love it. Attack us sky emporer. We are simple insects. Aah, I didn’t see any lightning yet. I heard rumblings. It’s good. It’s good feeling tiny to the power of weather and unknown things.

   I am confused when Irish native speakers of English say thunder and lightning, why they “and”. Its a thunderstorm? Different senses? It’s like calling a cheese sandwich a smell of sand which and a sandwich?

3. There are conductors on the top to attract lightning to stop other buildings being hit, clever fucks though are just catching free electricity due to the cost of living crisis

4. u/savevideo

5. Looking out the window of St Vincent’s I see

6. Great Capture! What exactly are these towers? I’ve heard to them referred to as the pigeon pair but that’s about it!

7. Thor Love and Thunder at cinemas nationwide.

8. Best argument i’ve seen to keep them, otherwise it might just be some lanky fuck walking along the sea wall that gets obliterated.

9. Well, at least they are good for something.

10. That saying about lightning never striking the same place twice is obviously shite, looks like two identical bolts both hit one after the other.

11. looks like it went from the tower to the cloud and then back again

12. At least credit the OP from Twitter :

13. I love hearing and seeing thunder and lightning

14. Lightning actually goes up from the ground… what we’re seeing here is electrons leaving Dublin because accommodation costs are so ridiculously high

15. In hospital? I had some very grim days with a similar view.

16. If you go through it frame by frame, there is a bolt from the left of the screen firs that hits Christ knows what, and then you’ll see that the main strike on the tower, starts on the tower before it’s connected with the main bolt coming down it’s weird. Also most like it was electrically charged due to proximity to the first bolt and then the second bolt was drawn to that charge. Damn nature, you scary!

17. Did lightning just strike that tower twice??

18. Kevin says if you get by lightning, you should get someone to pee on your leg. That’s what Kevin says. We practised in the woods last week.
