Not often do I manage to catch one of these fast little middle–upper-level lightning filaments during the daytime, without a time exposure, but I got lucky here. Convective plumes running up the back of a tail-end Charlie supercell hosted all manner of flickers and flashes, this one wrapping outside and around one tower like a sparky gift ribbon. I definitely appreciated the atmosphere’s generosity!
