'in real time'\nNope, not for the general public.\n\n[modified below for clarification]\nI'm guessing that you want real-time visual imagery. \n\nBut..\n\nIf you want real-time weather images, then \nhttp://www.ssec.wisc.edu/datacenter/\nhttp://wwwghcc.msfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/get-goes?satellite=GOES-8%20HURRICANE&overview&info=ir\n\nand, here's additional source from a google \nhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=%22real+time%22+%22satellite+image%22&spell=1

There is a great article to read on this, from How Stuff Works.  Its under "How Lightning Works", but it talks about both lightning and thunder.  My students got a lot out of it.

Your camera or your reaction is probably not fast enough to get the picture- if you mean why can't you take the picture, but if you just need photos of lightning strikes, here you go: http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?ei=UTF-8&fr=slv8-&p=lightning

Really professional modeling and graphic dispays of real weather is IDL. There is a student version.\nOne of the examples is the cross section of a thunderstorm. One could download information from the weather service and plot/model it on your computer. I have a little trouble learning it, but there are real rewards eventually. Also there is a site with a program for globes on icosahedrons using satelite data, Mars, Moon pictures and print out a globe.

SOHO's website has footage from the Sun.  It tends to have CCD bakeouts during really interesting periods when the Sun is acting up, and some people think that the people who control the satellite don't want you seeing what's up.  Just do a search for "SOHO"\n\nIf you want to see our weather, look up NOAA's website.  There are two different main pages, depending on if you want your footage centered over landmasses or oceans.  Do a search for "NOAA" if you want the landmasses, and "NOAA Hurricane" for the oceans.\n\nThose are the regular sites I visit.

Yep, you're right -- the west coast of Africa. Florida is the lightning capital of the U.S.\n\nhttp://experts.about.com/q/Meteorology-Weather-668/lightening.htm
