Thunderstorm environment
Kniaz:
Very possible, I actually recall RtB 1.45 (the really, really old Blockland) having something like this.
Conservative:
How about some looping skyboxes? 3 - 5 different types of the same skybox with different lightning, along with 3 - 5 random brightness flashes
or maybe you could manipulate the brightness of a skybox and make it look like lightning

You can't have multiple skyboxes.
You can do the lighting flashes with a day cycle.

It'd be pretty easy, but fiddly.
I can imagine a need to make the fractions really close, right?
Awdax:
The problem with using fractions to simulate lightning striking is that people will use a different day length. So depending on what you set the day length to, it could either be too quick or too long of a flash.
