ST ELMO'S FIRE

Pilots seem to have better views than most, so I'll let you see a weather phenomenon that most people will NEVER have the opportunity of seeing. I recorded this while flying through some precipitation one night. Flying through light rain/snow at the right temperature produces a miniature "lighting storm" right on our windshield called "St Elmo's fire". The first time you ever see this it REALLY gets your attention. Pretty neat stuff, eh?
