Great shot Paul.
Always have been interested in lightning, from an electrical perspective.
The width of the bolt is very striking, current wise.
This from the net...
"Most strike measurements have been in the range 5,000 to 20,000 amps but a famous strike just before the Apollo 15 launch in 1971 was measured at 100,000 amperes by magnetic links attached to the umbilical tower. Currents over 200,000 amps have been reported."
I have seen the effects of a front hoe digger hitting a 100,000v 5000amp underground line.
3/4 of the shovel vanished.
100,000amps, or greater would be "WOW"
