Sydney, NSW Lightning

Awesome CG photos from Monday night Jimmy !  Always nice when you can take it easy at home and enjoy the show – and not have to worry about rain mucking things up.  Nothing much here yesterday afternoon as the southerly wind change was too early. Northern Tablelands and into the Downs region had some nice looking storms on radar and satpics though.  There was some thunder and lightning from 11pm onwards – from a cell near Ballina – but stratocumulus was obscuring any view.
