Could a blimp be powered using thunderstorms?

+0

Could a untethered blimp be built strong enough to with stand a thunderstorm? Could wind generators be placed on it to transfer turbulence of shifting wind into wind power? Rain could be collected and provide showers if no lightning. Once full of electricity an water just elevate above the clouds.

I have marked it science fiction because the technology is there but has never been done.

Could a city be built out of Balloons?
