Wednesday, July 8, 2015, 5:50 PM - A Fourth of July fireworks display had to be put on hold in Lake Buena Vista, Florida on Friday as a storm rolled through, but there was still plenty to see in the sky.

Mother Nature decided to treat the crowd to a light show of her own, sending lightning strikes down near Cinderella's Castle.

Park visitor Kelsey Carragher told KTLA 5 the guests didn't appear to be frightened by the storm.

“The crowd seemed to be enjoying the lighting as much as they would have the fireworks,” she added.

Disney World was able to continue the fireworks show after the storm passed.
