As we enter our peak thunderstorm season, it is best to be reminded of the awesome power of these natural phenomena.  When the whole building starts swaying and the windows rattle with each boom, it can be a little scary.  Then there is this photo posted in the Washington Post yesterday of a thunderstorm near Lubbock that closely resembles a thermonuclear bomb blast.  Other amazing photographs are included in the accompanying story.

If that doesn’t put the fear of God into you, nothing will.
