The sky looks crazy in #1. Is that light pollution? That made for some contrast in the shot. While not lightning it still looks pretty cool. With #2 I'm drawn towards the bottom of the picture rather than the lightning. The lights over power the shot in my opinion.

Wow, wonderful shots, but as a So Californian, I would stay out of the rain!
