Lightning strikes ++++

[Liz]

We have had constant thunder and lightning since 1230 today.
Found a local weather station which says we have had 3366 strikes since noon!! Reckon I believe it too, as has been constant. :help:
Luckily not too many scary ones over the house .... only 2 that I had to put my hands over my ears, and go lalalallalalaaaa.

Time to get some nice long exposures once its dark. Love lightning photos, just do it from a safe location, standing in an open field with a metal tripod isn't quite a good idea

According to Energex on thursday night we had close to 20,000 lightning strikes. We lost a lot of power too.

Cheers Clive, did try and take some from front veranda, though has netting on it. Too wet and scary outside.
Storm continues.

Right down the bottom ( it's aloooong way down) it says Thanks for visiting his website, so I think it is a personal one by a local weather nut.... Very detailed.

I know its a beauty isnt it Bart!!
There are a couple of local guys with internet weather sites, but this is certainly the most comprehensive I have found.

Ahh tropical climates during the wet season. Hot, humid with torrential rain and thunderstorms. Bliss.
