Be careful! I was watching a show on the Science Channel the other night
and it said that lightning can strike within 25 miles of where it seems to
be focused. That is, if it seemed to be over Peoria, it could strike near
you too without warning. Also if you feel your scalp start to tingle, you
have a few seconds before becoming a conductor for a centi-farad of charge.

No, we left before the storm came to us. Pretty large spread of lightning to
view before it got near us.

Are there tall towers (radio masts) or other lightning rods in the area? If
not, you could be the contact point! 8^0

We didn't unload our telescopes, but we had the greatest mountain top view
of a Phoenix lightning show.
