Captured on camera is the incredible moment an Idaho mother was struck by lightning was recorded on video by her daughter who was standing just feet away. On Tuesday night severe weather gripped the town of Hayden and Stephanie Rey and her daughter CC Weske ventured outside to watch the lightning storm unfold.
At dusk, as dusk rolled in, Weske was filming a 10 second Snap Chat of her mother while lying on the ground and caught the flash of lightning strike her mother, making her glow like a nightlight in the darkness. They told KXLY about the experience…
'I was like, 'Oh something is about to happen,' that's why I was filming it. Then just all of the sudden, it just literally everything lit up and it sounded like a gun went off,' her daughter Weske said.
Mrs Stephanie described her first reaction…
'I screamed my phone flew out of my hand and I really wasn't sure what happened,' Rey said. 'I was like f**K, I think I just got hit by lightning and so we just took off running.'
She added that she tingled all over for several hours after the strike and happy she has lived to tell the story of her brush with death. See photos and video after cut…
