The video at the site was definitely worth a look.

Neat-o!

How cool is that? Kudos to the filmmaker and the inventor of thos ultra-fast shutter speeds (or did 0bama build that, too?)

That is SO amazing. It looks like the lightning does a couple of loop the loops at times.

I love watching lightning out at Lake Michigan, it either is or just appears to be much more intense, and the bolts wider. Of course, I’m just watching it in real time, not with this guy’s equipment, so...

There were some pretty spectacular bolts in the western burbs around 0630 this morning. I’m glad to see it as we really need the rain.

Yes, I thought that looked familiar. I have that gif as well.
