Spectacular lightning lights up Mecca
A violent storm has lashed Saudi Arabia’s Mecca region, causing an epic bolt of lightning to strike the Fairmont Makkah Clock Royal Tower hotel and just keep on striking. 1.21 jiggawatts of electricity coursed between the clock tower and the sky for several seconds, lighting up the sky like a second moon. Not that the Moon would have been visible, not with the winds and heavy rain. The strike was so energetic that several upward streamers developed, fizzling upwards into the sky. That main strike? That also travels upwards. Lightning is weird like that.
The clock tower, located near the Grand Mosque, often finds itself battered by lightning during Saudi Arabia’s storm season, and being the tallest building around, it often makes for one spectacular light show.
