You can watch and listen to a true Ontario thunder and lightning storm over Lake Superior from your campsite at the Agawa Bay Campground.

Fork lightning is a long spear like shape that is between the clouds and the ground which can cause fires when it touches down.A storm can quickly move in over the lakes in Lake Superior Provincial Park as clouds will slowly begin to thicken across the horizon and quickly fill the Ontario sky bringing in a fascinating lightning storm.
