In reply to Captain Fastrousers:
Thanks for that, very interesting.

Looks like some areas south of us are getting the lightning strikes.

> The ACT Emergency Services Agency is currently receiving calls from the public concerned about the presence of smoke over Canberra. The smoke is coming from a fire at Araluen, south of Braidwood, in NSW.

ETA: Photo I took of the non-storm approaching.
