It's actually just a screenshot off my phone from the actual video I took.

Ooh! I love lightning shots!  ;D
This is from a few years ago when my parents went to Sydney with my sister so she could get surgery. There was a storm, Mum was lucky enough to be at the Sydney Harbour bridge to get some shots! I Unfortunately didn't get to go to Sydney, I have never been!

Yes, lightning shots can be so awesome!

Ryan, consider it done.  I'm praying you get some of our heat, and we get a little cooling....but of course, August is NOT a cooler month here.  DRAT!

What a FANTABULOUS shot Elizabeth!! I saw some similar as Hurricane Gert was motoring by this week (offshore, thank goodness! 😅😅) I was driving though, so couldn't get any shots.

Carly Rae, your Mom's  are great, too. I find the middle one most interesting. I *think* I saw a PBS special that showed how lightning sometimes starts on the ends then meets in the middle like that one seems to be doing. I could be wrong though.... ::)

About to get one of the worst storms in the last 10 years. Its supposed to last for 48-72 hours and expected 200-250mls of rain.

I spent last night moving all the horses around back to the paddocks i generally use during winter. Ive cleaned out drains and nailed down and packed away anything likely to get blown away.

That's 7.8 to 9.8" for those of us in the States.  Gotta love on-line converters.   And, dang, that's a lot of rain.

That sounds terrible Ryan - hope the worst has passed you now and that you are all safe and sound. Do let us know when you can.

We got 128mls where I am so not as bad as expected , happy I was prepared for it .We didn't get the massive storm as predicted which was good . I think my horses are enjoying the cool change as we have had 30-35 degrees Celsius every day for the last two weeks .

I always find the weather quite confronting especially when it's severe , storms , fires , flooding etc . I'm sure we can all agree when your living on large parcels of land there's always so much to do especially with horses , cows and other livestock , making sure they are as safe as possible ..
