Severe thunderstorms were issued for Bismarck-Mandan and surrounding areas in the early morning hours on June 17.

At about 4:15am, thunder started rumbling in the Bismarck-Mandan area and lightning followed shortly after. By 4:30am we had heavy rain and consistent lightning and fairly strong winds.

Just after 5am, we took a video from our radio studio showing all the lightning. The lightning seemed to be more frequent around 4:30 through 4:50am but it was still pretty consistent shortly after 5am.

We also received video from a resident (and Townsquare Media employee) who lives in Driscoll. You can see that below our video below.

Check it out in the video below. Since lightning moves quickly, we also took some screenshots which you can see in the photo gallery above.
