Kamitsune Posted July 6, 2023 hello want to ask if are someone from north Italy, yesterday 06/07/23 near my place are 3 lightning strokes really nearby in a weird place and don't hit the lightning rod, and with a clear sky, after all, connection goes down for 20 hours Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lairg Posted July 6, 2023 Nicola Tesla thought lightning rods were useless. I have often seen horizontal lightning when the theory is that they should go to the Earth surface. There must be a better theory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lightening often strikes in the same place , I even have a 'lightening spot' up on the back hill of the property where three major strikes, at least , have happened . What 'weird place ' and why was it 'weird' ??? Are you asking about lightening in a clear sky ? or are you asking if anyone in Northern Italy saw it , or if any one else's connection went out .... or what ?

Theres multiple ways it can happen In fact the typical "cloud to ground" is only one type of several. Anvil crawlers would be one such demonstration If you've ever seen ground to cloud lightning, thats pretty cool as well 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Tesla wants to know where he said lightening rods are useless . And he also suggested Lairg might have been lying on his side during his observations . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
