Severe Storm Warning Last Night

 The distant rolls of thunder started about 8:30.  A few random flashes of lightning, too.  Overall, it was less than impressive - mostly to the south of me.  And then the second or third wave hit.  LOTS of lightning, some thunder.  So, of course, I had to get the tripod set up and see what I could capture.






And this is what a blinding flash looks like...seriously:


Tried shooting some video, too.  The sky was filled with a constant wash of flashes, but only the biggest and brightest registered on the camera. The few flashes it caught are just too fast to register.

Still, it was quite a show!
