Great balls o' fire
Weather watcher catches rare sight

HOMETOWN

Chris Hardy, left, and his uncle, Brad Hardy, are hoping to grab a lot
of attention among meteorologists with the ball lightning they caught on
videotape.

"What was that?" Chris Hardy asked his uncle.

Brad Hardy didn't hear the question. He was keyed in on the thunderstorm
he was watching through the viewfinder of his camcorder.

He had not seen what Chris saw, an eerie ball of light crossing the sky
near their Osceola home about 9:30 p.m. Aug. 21.
