If You See a 'Jellyfish' in the Sky, Find a Safe Place

If you happen to spot what looks like a "jellyfish" in the sky, it's time to play it safe! These ethereal creatures might not be from the deep sea, but rather a rare weather phenomenon called a sprite. Despite their otherworldly beauty, sprites are electrical discharges high above thunderstorms and can pack a punch. So, finding a safe place indoors is crucial to avoid any unintended shocks. While they may not sting like their aquatic counterparts, witnessing these sky jellyfish is a visual treat best enjoyed from the safety of solid ground. Remember, nature's light shows are best appreciated when you're not part of the performance! 🌩️🔍🏠
