The Laws of Blessings which apply during the Rainy Period (10)

1)    According to the basic law, one who sees lightning or hears thunder says the blessing “Oseh Ma’aseh Bereishis”. If he wants, he may say “Shecocho ugevuraso malei olom”. (Shulchan Aruch and Mishne Berurah 227)

2)    However, the accepted custom is to say“Oseh Ma’aseh Bereishis” on the lightning and “Shecocho ugevuraso malei olom” on the thunder. (ibid)

“Moshe established for Yisrael, that they should inquire and teach the issue of the day, the halachos of Pesach on Pesach, the halachos of Atzeres on Atzeres, the halachos of chag on the chag” (Megilla 32)
