A “bolt from the blue” killed a Florida man yesterday. David Canales, 41, was outside landscaping and had no warning of any thunderstorm activity, according to The Miami Herald.
The phenomenon, called a “bolt from the blue” by the National Weather Service, is rare but unknown. See a photo of one.
Lightning kills about 66 people in America every year. Many of them are golfers or others who do not heed obvious signs to go indoors and lose a one-sided game of chicken with Nature. Canales, however, is just one very, very unlucky person.
