Lightning 200 miles away

By DAN ROBINSON Editor/Photographer

These storms near Louisville, Kentucky were visible from New Baden, IL tonight, a distance of over 200 miles. It would have taken me almost 4 hours of driving to reach them. This is the most distant storm/lightning I've ever observed or photographed!
