Good capture.
Interesting, as the lightning was very similar to the earlier storm.
I was however, disappointed with the thunderstorms, that I didn't here any really good 'dump' thunder.
There was the one or 2 close to it but .....![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)

Thanks guys ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
Yeah it was a shame about the lack of lightning, there were a few really good CGs while we were setting up which were missed, but both storms really seemed to die as far as lightning was concerned as they moved north.![Confused :?](./images/smilies/icon_confused.gif)

I think like I mentioned before the majority of the lightning was to the west up against the foothills with the gust front storm, I noticed this as it was rolling in.
We had one overhead bolt and CG to the right of us while driving, the thunder immediately followed loud enough to rattle the car even while driving.
