Lightning Flash/Explosion

Lightning hit a tree that’s very close to the house wife heard it saw it I was at another location heard it sounded like two explosions and the flash was like someone turning on the highlights of about 18 eighteen wheelers pointing right at the glass door, yeah it was bright like sunshine! The explosion which sounded like two at the same time got our attention so with the light and the explosion we were mesmerized! Poor tree at the base all the way to the Tip top it’s kind of look like a corkscrew from the ground going to the from right to left!
