Dolphins in the storm

[ricki]

Nice video Paul, thanks for putting it up. Great concept, dolphins surfing storm swells. I was taken by something in the clip. That is the dolphins continuing to breach despite incoming bad weather. Folks may recall the SCUBA diver struck by lightning on the surface in Deerfield recently. If you are well beneath the surface, lightning is supposedly not a big deal. If you are on board a well grounded boat you might suffer flash burns but may be OK as well. The dicey time is when you are sticking out of the water. I was scooter free diving off Boca Raton recently when some severe supercells were moving offshore. Got me thinking about how bad an idea it was to be on the surface with lightning moving in. I called it a day before too long. Maybe they know when it is time to sound or ?
