Thunder and lightning is a rare occurrence in Cape Town, so when it happens two nights in a row, we get kinda excited.

Absolutely terrible for the poor dogs who are terrified of lightning…
Two nights in a row……. so rare….scaring and at the same time amazing! I love my city CAPE TOWN.!
It was amazing to watch, makes you realize that you are a mere morsel of biological matter.
The Lord was speaking out loud with us
The Lord definitely spoke his word in the skies
New puppy!!!!!! ♡ Stella Drago

Wish we could get some rain up in KZN

My hondjie (yorki) het nogal gehou daarvan. Dit was sy eerste ervaring van donderweer. Oortjies kiertsregop om te luister. Maar mamma styf teen hom.
Doesn’t anyone realise that lightning can be dangerous??
Paul Wiersma
Stunning pics! Thought I was back in Jozi !!…….

Wow! Hope no damage done. Am intrigued by a bright string of lights that seem to wrap around the base of Lion’s Head.
Wow !!

See why I was so excited? U0001f60d
In science we used to say, Cold Ocean currents meet with Warm Ocean Current and they strike each other , they resulted thunder, in the other hand my grandmother she used to say where they strike there is a Lamb of God, is it true or false? Never known, not proved
Haha… no thanx… 😛
Yes it our city of milk and honey just love this place

Awesome photos.

You dont have to be scared. This happens about once a week in Johannesburg during summer months and literally every second somewhere in the world, and besides more people kill people than lightning kills people. So enjoy mother natures beauty.
Jo dis mooi…..
Wow!!!
Anita you missed that show. Mwah
A+MAZING!!!
Wow

Absolutely love this came from the FS where the storms are massive, been here 18 years but still miss them….
I thought the same thing when I saw these pics lmao!U0001f609

Beautiful pictures job well done to the cameras but for me I was under the blankets I’m very scared of lightning & thunderstorms
Fantastic photo love Cape Town xx
Please if u can dont look straight into the lightning .it shows gods power he can blind u with the lightning and take your hearing away with the thunder .just pray when these things happen.
