Default Afternoon Storm In Sydney

An afternoon storm hit Sydney Airport today and made things interesting on approach. Qantas 438 from Melbourne (VH-VXF) was on final approach to Runway 34R, when several bolts of lightening strike in the surrounding areas. On short final they declare "Going Around Can't See The PAPI" and make a right turn onto heading 090. The last bolt of lightening as they go around is a beauty.
