Raleigh, NC predawn lightning

By DAN ROBINSON Editor/Photographer

Currently in Raleigh helping Matt (my brother) and his wife Beth move into their new house. Some nice storms fired this morning before dawn with some great lightning. As usual, rain kept me from setting up when the best were happening, but I did manage to catch one decent shot at Tryon Road and Gorman Street. If you look closely at the base of the lightning, you can see the blueish-green glow from a power line flashover caused by the strike.
