Here’s a clip of the severe thunderstorm west of Toowoomba yesterday (22 Jan). The turbulent skies were amazing but then we captured some very close lightning including this. There are also photos of this impact that we’ll put up later. Hail to 4cm, flash flooding and wild winds soon arrived after this lightning. There was a feast of storm activity in the area but the above clip was a highlight!

Nice Michael – reminds me of the barrage near Walcha in 2010! Love the low bases!
That is one bright bolt!
