Question
Is it permissible to bless for lightning and thunder during the blessings of Shema?
Answer
One blesses only between the sections [between the first and second blessings, between the second and 'Shema', between 'Shema' and 'Vehaya Im Shamoa', and between 'Vehaya' and 'Vayomer'], but one should not interrupt in the middle of a section.
