Nova Scotia thunderstorm lights up social media

Thunderstorms crackled over Nova Scotia Tuesday night, but it was social media that lit up as the storms rolled through and interrupted Lauryn Hill's set at the Halifax Jazz Festival.

Thunderstorms crackled over Nova Scotia Tuesday night bringing rain and hail in some locations, but it was social media that lit up as the storms rolled through.

Twitter and Facebook were electric with photos and video.

The storm pushed pause on the sold-out Lauryn Hill concert at the Halifax Jazz Festival.

But after a 20-minute break to allow the thunder and lightning to pass, the concerts on the Halifax waterfront resumed.

And the reviews of the show were clear: anyone who left because of the soggy weathermissed out.

No major power outages were reported.
