Very cool, unusual sight

Very early AM here.  Had an inspiration, working through it, when I hear rumbling outside.  

 

Huh...yeah, it's thunder.

 

Look out the front door, to the west and north...stars.  Overhead...stars.

 

More thunder...flash of lightning.  Oh, it's from the east....

 

Yep.  Cloud bank, kind of hard to see because the contrast is bad, given the low light. Stars to the NE, stars to the south.  

And cloud-to-cloud lightning to the SE.  Mostly...I saw one cloud-to-ground, but cloud-to-cloud several times.

I love thunderstorms. We rarely get them here. 

 

You may be in luck. As the climate heats up the atmosphere will grow more unstable, so thunderstorms may become more common over Hawaii. Of course that will probably also increase the frequency of typhoons, but hey, no unmixed blessings, right? :whistle:
