Would you dive with thunderstorms?

I'd be leery about going out on a boat w/ a threat of a thunderstorm, but not a shore dive.

Last year I was diving a small lake and a torndado came through less than a mile away.  The flashes of lightning underwater were interesting - like a camera flash.

Two years ago I was out at Wazee ending a dive and I couldn't figure out what this weird sound was.  I was near the end of the dive in 10' of water.  I turned around (looking up) and saw the coolest sight of rain hitting the surface of the water.  I dumped all my air and settled into the bottom and watched the effect until my tank was near empty.

I wouldn't intentionally go diving if a thunderstorm were obviously imminent though.
