The Incredible, Early Morning Michigan Lightning Of June 16, 2016

It is some time about 2 am here in Michigan on June 16, 2016. There is an immense amount of lightning being produced in the western sky, and it is phenomenally bright, illuminating a really fierce sky, turning night into day. Then, after 3 am, it moves south, and persists for what seems like a few hours, after which it persists in the eastern sky for at least two hours, and the sky all around the storm is pretty clear, and all of the mist high up in the air makes it look as though there is a glow emanating into space at least once a second. Simply incredible. Throughout the whole storm, there is virtually no sound of thunder whatsoever, and very little rain. And this is not even a significant storm system, either. It seems as though somewhere there is an extremely potent atmosphere starting to accumulate.
