Thousands of lightning strikes sparked across the Bay Area and Central Coast Wednesday and Thursday as a low pressure system passed through, bringing with it a spattering of rain and a cooldown that is set to end as Friday and Saturday's temperatures heat up again. Over a 24-hour period from Wednesday to Thursday morning, approximately 5,000 lightning strikes touched down across the regions, said National Weather Service Meteorologist Nicole Sarment.
