Close "clear-air" lightning bolt!
This massive clear air bolt (cloud-to-ground lightning bolt) hit about 200-250m away from Darwin, Australia. These bolts can leap 15-20km away from the main storm striking a dry area surrounding the storm. The bolt hits near the base of the tree as a large puff of dust can be seen after the initial strike!

A powerful clear-air lightning strike was captured near Darwin, hitting roughly 200–250 meters away from the observer. These cloud-to-ground bolts can travel an incredible 15–20 km from the main thunderstorm and strike dry areas far from the rain. The impact near the base of the tree created a noticeable burst of dust immediately after the strike, showing just how intense the energy was. Events like this remind us how unpredictable and dangerous lightning can be in open environments.
