Yesterday (28/07/2013) there were two fantastic instances of fork lightning visible from my bedroom window. Although I completed misjudged where the first strike would fall, I managed - albeit unknowingly at the time - to capture the second occurrence through my rain soaked window. The video is a little slow to get going but rather than cutting to the proverbial chase by editing out everything but the lightning itself, I've left most of the footage exactly how it was taken, with some slow motion segments added at the end. Fantastic luck and timing made for an excellent natural spectacle :)
