Lightning Bolt

I captured this lightning bolt today at about 7:15PM EDT, it's not the best video but it's okay. When watching the video, near the end look in the center of the screen above the tree line and you will see it. Like I say it's not the best but I thought I would share it anyways.

I don't mean to be engaging in one-upmanship, but check out this video I took while I was driving in a severe thunderstorm last week!

(A word to the wise: TURN THE VOLUME DOWN! It's such a cool video I that I just have to post it, but I accidentially let a couple of cusswords slip out after I saw this lightning bolt. I don't know how to erase the audio from the videoclip...)

Cool clips

I took this earlier. You'll see the flash about 13 seconds in.

It was as this cell passed over (I'm roughly at the circle with the cross inside of it)
