Attention!!!  Skip immediately to 5:00 if watching the entire 8 minutes from the beginning is too boring!  You won't regret it!

This noisy storm rolled in just before midnight.  The SPC backed off on the severe threat so I wasn't expecting much, but to my surprise a decent MCS formed over Lake Michigan and filled in nicely over the western part of the state.

I captured some pretty loud and impressive thunderclaps and a few CGs as well.  

Best visible CGs:  0:04, 1:08, 1:45, and 6:36

Best close thunderclaps:  6:36, 7:36

EXTREMELY CLOSE thunderclap: 8:08 (Yea, I got scared at this point)
