Sydney Skies Lit Up By Spectacular Lightning Show

Sydney's skyline exploded in an incredible light show on Wednesday night as humid conditions lead to thunderstorms and lightning that covered the city to the delight of Instagram users everywhere.

The electrical storm transformed the skies as Sydneysiders jumped on the opportunity to grab spectacular photos and video footage of the weather event.

The storm comes only days after Sydney was battered by another storm that saw more than 500 lightning strikes cause delays to flights and a house fire on the north shore of the city, according to 9 News.

For your eyes' delight, check out some of the amazing snaps from the storm.
