don't know whether it reached your local news stations
but here at terrigal yesterday afternoon we had an almighty CLOSE strike that both the wife and i commented on
turns out a women was killed by that lightning strike on terrigal beach - not 300 yds from our house
she was apparently walking on the beach (with someone else) and carrying two fishing rods at the time

why would it be attracted to two fishing rods you might say ?

well not many, other that an old local like myself, would know that right in that vicinity at the entrance to the lake is a large (hidden) ironstone rock formation

poor bugger
