Lightning Storm

Last weekend, on my way back from DC, I had a spectacular view of a lightning storm from my airplane windown. Apparently, flights were cancelled all up and down the eastern seaboard from widespread thunderstorms, which might explain why the airport was such mess that day. For at least an hour or more while in the air, I witnessed the most brilliant lightning I had even seen. The storm must have been massive, extending from horizon to horizon, to have seemed so large, even from 28,000 feet. I doubt these snapshot from the plane windown can do justice, but they give somewhat of an idea of what is saw.
