Lightning May Strike


Click on the picture to make it bigger. Look at my hair! During our camping trip we had a wee thunderstorm. This is what http://www.erh.noaa.gov
has to say about your hair standing on your head:

When the electrical charge begins to build, preceding a lightning strike, it feels very similar to a build up of charge prior to a static electricity charge. You may feel or see your hair standing up...
This sensation is one sign that lightning is about to strike.
