During a recent storm, three or four bolts of lighting struck behind the hangar at the Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ State University Airport. It happened as a staff member was rolling up the hose near the gas pump in the foreground of this image.
Michael Gershe, senior advisor II from Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ State's College of Aeronautics and Engineering, said, "I was standing just outside the door and saw the bolts. Within a half second or less: the big boom of thunder. It was cool and yet scary at the same time." Gershe captured the above image from a monitor showing the feed from one of the airport's security cameras.
