Plane hit by lightning

Wow. Although after reading about it on the plane after it happened and seeing that it occurs frequently, I have to say when it the lightning struck, it was extremely perplexing and even a little frightening. Flying MSP>LGA , right after initial descent there was a bright flash of greenish tinted bright yellow light that went throughout the cabin accompanied by a nice loud boom. Just wondering if this is the same experience anyone else that has been through a plane lightning strike has experienced.
