thunderbolts
Sky's electric strikes
Thunderbolts are bolts of lightning, especially when imagined as projectiles hurled from the sky.
In mythology, gods like Zeus wielded thunderbolts as weapons.
The word suggests sudden, devastating force: The news hit like a thunderbolt.
A thunderbolt can be any shocking revelation or unexpected blow: Her resignation came as a thunderbolt to the board.
