Electric storm in Australia
Perth residents witnessed an amazing display from 22,000 lightning strikes off the coast as the weekend drew to a close, but those in the South West saw a cracking 313,000 strikes across all of Sunday.
Weatherzone meteorologist Tom Hough said cloud and ground strikes within 50 kilometres of Perth reached almost 22,000, and of those 250 were ground strikes mainly over the city.
The line of storms stretching from Bunbury up to Lancelin hit after 7pm, with 53,000 strikes recorded up to 100 kilometres away from Perth, of which “a large proportion would have been offshore”.
In the state’s south, lightning struck about 313,000 times within a 300-kilometre radius south of Mandurah, starting early Sunday morning.
Florida is the deadliest state for lightning strikes
Florida is only fourth as far as the overall frequency of lightning strikes, behind Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas.
But because Florida is packed with Harry Potter, Disney, Golf, and overall outdoor fun fans, lightning becomes more dangerous to its population.

Star trails, lightning and lightning bugs – only in Florida @FOX13News @foxnews @NatGeoPhotos @thephotohour @NatGeo @NatGeoMag @abcactionnews @PaulFox13 @stormhour @BN9 pic.twitter.com/Dq51pvwdyr
According to National Weather Service, central Florida is the most dangerous area for lightning strikes. This is due to the opposing sea breezes from the East Coast and Gulf Coast.
The northeast and southwest winds collide right over the central region. And the water that surrounds Florida is warmest in July, making it the most dangerous month for storms and lightning strikes.
While Florida is referred to as the Sunshine State, it could also go by the name of electric reaper given its status as the deadliest state for lightning strikes. – Yahoo
