Thunderstorms and Lightning

This was taken from north of Huntly, in the Waikato, NZ. This was also taken from north of Huntly a short while later. Cloud growth was very fast. This storm cell developed while we were watching it, near Hamilton. This was a severe-warned storm near Karapiro. Later it deluged Cambridge and Matangi.
Another pic of the storm near Karapiro. Very nice structure. The Karapiro was temporarily storm lit up by the setting sun. Taken from Howick, view of the thunderstorm west of here. The Auckland storm affected mainly southern and central areas.
Another view of the Auckland storm. This congestus tower beside the storm was showing rapid growth. This is a still image taken from a video clip of the storm at Cambridge. Another still image of purple sky during a lightning flash on the way to Cambridge.
A still image from a clip of the Auckland storm, shot from Howick. Another CG from the Auckland storm. Another CG lightning strike from the Auckland storm. A CG strike from a Spring 2007 storm over Auckland.
