Question
What is the ruling if one sees lightning or hears thunder during prayer?
Answer
If one hears thunder or sees lightning during prayer, if he is in the middle of Pesukei Dezimra [until Yishtabach], he interrupts, even if he is in the middle of a section, but from Yotzer Or, he interrupts only between sections.
