A rare lightning storm crackles over Mitchell's Cove in Santa Cruz around 3 a.m. August 16, 2020. The severe storm system rolled through the San Francisco and Monterey Bay areas early Sunday, packing a combination of dry lightning and high winds that triggered wildfires throughout the region. The National Weather Service on Sunday extended a red flag fire warning for the entire Bay Area until 11 a.m. Monday morning. Photo by Shmuel Thaler, The Santa Cruz Sentinel via AP
