I find thunderstorms fascinating and enjoy watching them roll thru from the safety of my living room. I've also been out hunting when these storms roll thru and they deserve respect. A good writeup on how to limit the odds of a lightening strike can be found here: rendezvous.nols.edu/files/Curriculum/research_projects/Risk%20Management%20Reports/NOLS%20Backcountry%20Lightning%20Safety%20Guidelin es.pdf

The most dangerous hunting experience was in the Adirondacks. A micro-burst or wind shear had gone through a wide area where I was hunting. Many, many broken tree tops were precariously hanging atop other trees just waiting to fall down with the slightest breeze. I was on my toes all day watching for the potential danger from above.

Wind and lightning!Not really a good day to be in the timber.Lightning may be a rush, but if it strikes a tree you may be hudling under, you might get lit up. Then gusting winds clean the canopy of widow makers. Maybe a good day to stay in camp and read your Louis L'amour.
