June 12th 2010 was the most violent lightning storm we'd seen in at least... 2 weeks. Cloud-to-ground lightning vigorously struck the Earth about every 2 seconds. The second strike in this clip is noteworthy for the 15 or 16 discharges. We observed several brief fires started by the lightning (one seen in the clip out the passenger window). The catch of the day however is the still photo at the end of this clip: Lightning hitting the ground approximately 200 feet from the camera with a clear depiction of an upward leader.
