A wave of atmospheric lightning starting from the far reaches of the sky and dominoeing toward us in Lebanon, TN.

Caught this wave rolling in right over the open tree line. It sets off a cool chain reaction across the horizon before a few lighter bolts start streaking closer to the house.

A severe supercell directly on our doorstep in Lebanon, TN. Constant atmospheric flashes followed by a massive lightning bolt stretching and branching completely across the sky.

This is the final moments before the core of the storm moved in over the house. The next video I upload shows the absolute wall of water and severe downpours that followed right after this massive branching strike!

The calm before the next supercell hits. Momentum building with atmospheric flashes at 0:10 and 0:22, followed by a solid branching strike that streaks across the sky at 0:39.

We just had a massive downpour pass through Lebanon, TN, and everything cleared out for a moment. You can really see the storm charging back up in this clip before the next wave hits.
