451 claps of thunder in 10 minutes. Flight 343 circled Wuhan deciding to land. The FO suggested diverting. The plane was struck by lightning and wind shear then broke in two crashing into Sitai Village.

After deicing they ended up delayed on departure, ice built up on the wings. Struggling to become air born they crashed (gently) into a house. Coming down through the attic and out the front doors, our pilot flying earned the nickname Rooftop Johnson.

@nws.noaa.gov this is extremely exciting! Have a picture of Kermit. I made him out of a P-3 model kit 🐸
