If you guessed B, you are correct. There will be two blue moons in 1999. We had two full moons in January and two in March. (January 31st and March 31st) The last time there were two full moons in a year was in 1980 and the next time will be in the year 2018. |

What part of a lightning storm is the most dangerous?
|
The largest number of lightning strikes occur just as the storm is ending not during its most intense part, according to a study of Florida lightning-strike casualties. Most people think the storm is over and head outside only to get hit by the storm's last flashes. When your little leaguers are anxious to get back to the game...remember "you're not home-free 'til the storm subsides."
