Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope’s Cloudcam captured the huge electrical storm over the Big Island Saturday night (Oct 26-27).

The Cloudcam is located at CFHT on Mauna Kea and you can see the glow of Hilo in the lower right of the time-lapse movie. The camera captures an image from sunset to sunrise every 60 seconds.
