See the Best Photos/Videos from the Crazy NorCal Thunderstorms this Week

The skies were bright in some parts of Northern California Friday night, with hundreds of lightning strikes filling the air and causing small wildfires in the wilderness.

Let’s take a look at some of the best photos/videos of the intense thunderstorm:
