Downtown Boston just had the sickest hailstorm I have ever seen.

Yep, saw the black front wall coming as I was driving home from hugging some more fly rods.

I have seen some great light shows by anchoring off Barrington beach and watching the storms pound Providence. Its like watching lightning at the movies. Instead of just a big flash , you get to see the whole lightning bolt.

While they do develop fast , you can usually see them coming very easily.

I heard something about a guy down in Bristol, got struck by lightning out on a jetty. Anybody else hear that?

Why you would stay on a jetty during a thunderstorm is beyond me.

Depending on how long the jetty is, you might have a better shot hunkered down in the rocks than trying to walk in. If I was out on the end of the Scussett jetty, I probably couldn't get in before a fast moving cell closed in on me.

I probably wouldn't be out there in the first place when storms were forecast, but lots of guys don't check the online weather, or know what the warning signs in the sky look like.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
