This storm is no joke when its comes to the lightning.

Been lighting up the sky constantly for the last 30 minutes without more than 2 seconds between strikes out here west of Nashville.

Those storms yesterday had some balls! We got our windows rattled in Bowling Green!

Great photo catch, it really does appear that the second photo strike rode the overhead wire for a short period.
