We had very nasty and aggressive thunderstorms here in Berlin earlier on this afternoon. I have noticed this at TXL previously, when flights have been substantially delayed and the Captain has told us that the reason for delay is that the airport imposes a safety ban on people walking out along beside the aircraft as it gets backed out from the stand, in case they are unfortunate enough to get struck by lightning during the process. Quite understandable!
