Getting power sags when the lightning flashes now, nearly lost it completely — very bright and very loud!

You have another? Awesome it will be heading my way then!

Just seen one flash to the south, unable to depth the distance so I won't even go there lol. But NW Radar has some strikes to the North of the main sferic core with a new area of convection prepping up so more than likely it was from this area. Just the one flash for now, as I know the main action is completely out of visual range.

A very yellowish cloud above us here. Looks very odd. Sadly, no lightning to be seen here now.

Were you on line when I posted my pix a few pages back? It was heading your way like a train. I've never seen a gust front from a storm move so fast before.

Excellent. Will be distant flashes at best for here but night sky may allow more to be seen. :D
