How interesting that the article states that no buildings were damaged!! What?? I think the people's welfare should be more important than the buildings!! I live in Florida, the lightning capital of the world, and it's amazing how many people don't realize how they could be struck by lightning when it's not raining. People should get educated before they come here. And duh...don't golf when there is a possibility of bad weather. Nothing like walking around in the open with what equates to be a lightning rod in your hand!!!!

Yep. Lots of funnel clouds here this summer. I have not seen a day without lightning in a week.

LOL!

Must have been on the Florida level. Was mid-90's out with 70plus dew points. Heat index was 104 they said. Now, I'd much rather have the heat than the cold, but that was a bit much. Going to be close to that today as well....
Stay hydrated and be careful. Heat exhaustion/stroke is no fun. The tropical front move west, and now it's just the norm T storms in late afternoon, but it was 102F as I shopped yesterday. Didn;t even want to know the index! Be safe!!
