WATCH: Lightning lights up Kamloops sky

KAMLOOPS – Thunder roared across Kamloops last night and the lightning from the storm made for a brilliant show.

Kamloops resident Sam Numsen posted two videos to Twitter, which showed lightning dancing across the pitch black sky above the city.

The Thompson region was also hit with light rain earlier this morning, July 6, and on the bright side it doesn't look like any new wildfires were caused by last night's storm.
