Weird thing happening

Hi everyone,

I built a bi directional 4 bay antenna with no reflector last year and have been happily pulling all 6 of my local channels total of 20 with the sub channels. I spent several weekends finding the best spot on my roof and pointed at every tower in a 150 mile ratios hoping to pull in a couple more channels without success. I rescan every couple weeks just to see if anything new pops up. A couple of nights ago I scanned again during a severe lightning storm and got 14 more channels 52 including all the sub channels. The farthest one is 138 miles away. Some are weak and drop out allot some are fairly strong and seem to be here to stay. So total I have scanned in 66 ota channels. I know some people are going to say I'm full of crap heck I would to I wasn't seeing it with my own eyes but it true and I have no idea why. I haven't made any changes to the antenna in a year or so. I guess my next move will be to add a reflector and a motor and see if I can lock on to some of the harder to get ones. Any thoughts on this?
