Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA few thunderstorms developed over eastern New Jersey on August 30. Marginal environmental conditions precluded any severe weather in association with these storms. However, they approached several locations along the New Jersey Shore during the mid to late afternoon. Beaches were crowded on what had previously been a sunny and warm day, creating a dangerous situation due to the lightning being produced by the approaching storms. Sadly, a Seaside Park lifeguard was killed and several others in the same area were injured by a lightning strike.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeSeven individuals were struck by lightning in South Seaside Park, with one fatality.
