. . .

The place with the MOST lightning is around Tampa Florida,
though west and central Florida score high overall. Yep,
been there, seen it - MASSIVE lightning storms, the whole
sky goes midnight (or worse, green) - it's like Zeus is
waging war on the alligators. Sometimes four to six
inches of instant rain too.

The locals just shrug it off. Giant bolts exploding trees
and power poles ? Typical day.

The number of people hit/killed by lightning seems split
between Florida and Mississippi.

The "western" US does not seem to get nearly as many
ground-strikes.
