A fast-moving, beautifully but somewhat infrequently sparking thunderstorm cluster briefly broke the “infrequent” description, with four cloud-to-ground blasts in just a few seconds. This ionized outburst illuminated the northwestern Kansas sky and landscape beyond the prevailing twilight. Imagine the crazy pattern of thunder unleashed somewhere near the midpoint of these four discharges. When it comes to storms on the High Plains, the cliche, “Expect the unexpected,” has great merit.
