i use the count system
if the lightning comes down within a 1001-1005 count
it's reportedly that far away from you right as you hear the thunder rumble

so if it goes BOOM then a bolt comes down it's directly over head...

that being SAID....

remember the old Etch a Sketch with the two dials
that's how lightning works

it comes down stairs so to speak, and can strike you from 20 miles away
the holding on to a lightning (FISHING) rod increases your chances
of it being used to "go to Ground" VIA you holding the highest point around
