I left work a little early today as the weather was getting bad and I hate to be on icy roads. Snow and sleet were coming down so heavy, I could barely see anything. As I was driving, I heard and felt a large boom. At first I thought there was an accident or something of the sort close by. A few moments later the sky filled with lightning and the boom happened again.
I have never seen lightning during a snow storm. It was oddly beautiful and freaky at the same time. Of course I had to look it up and it’s called a thundersnow and it only happens around 6 times a year, or at least that is how many times people report it each year.
