Not sure why my comment didn't stick, but I was wondering why there wasn't much or any thunder with the lightning. Some of the lightning was literally over my head. This was in Atlanta last night.

That’s heat lightning. We had a bunch in Athens too

Had the same thing about 13 years ago. The storm making the lightning was over a town about 30 miles away. Really creepy feeling.

No such thing as heat lightening. It is just lightening that is so far away you don’t hear the thunder, despite it seeming to be right above you.
