Thunder and lightning rolled through the Portland area early Thursday.

The storm provided a grand show for anyone who stayed awake to watch — and likely roused some of the light sleepers among us. It also resulted in damage, reportedly causing a tree to fall onto two homes.

Sleep through the storm? Here’s a collection of some of the most eye-catching photos and videos we’ve seen on social media.

The National Weather Service posted three great videos of lightning strikes.

Especially deep thunder can be heard in this video.

@KGWNews @KGWRodHill This is some of the deepest, most reverberant thunder I've heard in a long time, shook the whole house. Crazy lightning too! pic.twitter.com/EK1uqftDow — Andy Thomas (@EditorAndy_KGW) August 29, 2019

Lightning was captured in slow-motion here.

Another good video.

A patrol deputy captured some impressive images.

That was an impressive storm last night. This strike was outside Oregon City captured by one of our patrol deputies. It caused a transformer to blow. pic.twitter.com/nS7CxfdWPv — Clackamas Sheriff (@ClackCoSheriff) August 29, 2019

This one’s pretty good, too.
