Motorcyclist hit by bolt of lightning

Today while riding down I-5 in Chehalis WA a guy was struck by lightning in his helmet. Motorist behind him reported that his whole body lighted up. He managed to stop his bike. His helmet was burned as was his neck and ears. They got him to the next exit to a convenience store where a ambulance they had emergency vehicles. They showed pictures of his helmet and it was charred and some of the wiring was burn. I'll se if I can find some local news media photos. Another rider was killed by lightening when he and his wife pulled the motorcycle over and took refuge under a tree. Right now we are having severe weather warnings as a huge lightening storm moves up the I-5 corridor. Been one of those days,

Here are a couple of pics of his helmet.

darn that must have hurt new meaning to hot head , as for getting under a tree guess then never paid attention in science class

His wife who was thrown sever yards away said he was leaning up against the tree, like da you just became a part or extension of the tree dude.

darn now I know he slept in science class , what a dummy

Here is a pic of the lightning strikes coming my way today. Yea it got real stormy and lots of lightning. Heard a Tornado touched down to. Same weather tomorrow, think Maddog and I will go shooting indoors.

Be glad to we got enough just today alone.

HRK, they are pretty rare up here and usually cause damage. They also cause forest fires here which we don't need.
