During a huge thunderstorm on Monday night, three iconic towers on the Chicago skyline were hit by lightning: The Sears (Willis) Tower, Trump Tower and the John Hancock Center.
Stormchaser Dan Robinson was lucky enough to catch them on film. Here's a gif we made of his YouTube video.
The Daily Mail has some more great images of the storm and its aftermath, as well. Here's one they tweeted out:

Here's a gif from a video of the same thing happening in 2010, from Craig Shimala on Vimeo. Shimala got a great shot of the storm last night, too:
