Pirates' Beach Lightning Strikes

On September 4, 2003 a strong lightning storm passed just to the West of Pirates' Beach, Galveston
at about 4PM.

These strikes shown here were just some of the ones that hit during about a 15 minute period.

While the bolts appear to be hitting the house next to our beach house, they are actually striking the ocean.
