I watched the animated gif in the readme and let out a shout of delight when I saw the lightning strike, and on the second loop appreciated how it also lit up the surroundings. Lovely attention to detail!

I looked at the snow one and almost expected snowdrifts to start accumulating.

For me (in firefox) whole screen froze for a sec/two when lightning hit.
Maybe try a virtual power-stabilizer/battery-backup to protect from voltage spikes like this ;)
I disabled hardware acceleration due to some DRM reasons and notice heavy JS graphics will lag the browser.
same here in safari. first strike ok, second froze for a few sec. I did like the sort of 'obstruction' effect of the rain on the house for example. obvioulsy a limitation of the char based render, but it adds a pleasing kind of obscuring effect.
Can confirm the same issue.
