Lightning Storm pics I took last night

We had a major lightning storm in the Sacramento area last night. The biggest I've ever seen in this area. Took some pics from my home.

We had multiple strikes every second for a while. There was 3 or 4 flashes all continuous throughout the sky. I didn't have to wait longer than 2 or 3 seconds before antother stike came.

We don't get that much lightning in Northern California. None as heavy as last night. Last night was really out of the ordinary. I know it is more common in other areas.

...Back to sunny and low 80's today.

I think it started around 10pm. The local Sac TV stations had an emergency warning.
