Lightning Zaps Inflatable Pool Lexington, Kentucky — July 14, 2023 A routine summer thunderstorm in Lexington delivered a shocking display of nature's power last Friday when a massive bolt of lightning made a direct hit on a family’s inflatable swimming pool. The entire electrifying event was captured in stunning detail by a home security camera. The video begins with a peaceful view of the backyard at dusk. Suddenly, the entire screen is engulfed in a blinding white and violet flash as a powerful lightning bolt slams directly into the center of the pool. The impact is explosive, causing the water to erupt into the air in a geyser. The bolt remains visible for a split second before darkness returns, leaving steam rising from the pool's surface. Miraculously, the homeowners reported that the inflatable pool itself sustained no apparent damage from the millions of volts it absorbed. According to meteorologist John Hayes, this isn’t entirely surprising. “Water is an excellent conductor,” Hayes explained. “The immense energy from the strike was likely dispersed throughout the volume of water, rather than being concentrated on a single point, which likely prevented more severe damage.” The homeowners, who were safely inside at the time, were left with incredible footage and a profound respect for the dangers of thunderstorms. The incident serves as a visceral reminder of the well-known safety rule: stay out of and away from all bodies of water during a lightning storm, as they are one of nature's most effective lightning rods.
