The Lightning crossed for six tries to secure a bonus point win, with Number 8 Gwennan Hopkins, wing Catherine Richards, half-backs Carys Hughes, Sian Jones and prop Abbey Constable, all crossing for tries. Wales Test full back Nel Metcalfe slotted over three conversions for the home side.
Flanker Holland Brogan scored a first half try for the Warriors with Ailie Tucker crossing for a brace of tries deep into injury time.
Two away games to open the campaign was always going to prove challenging for Warriors but they've show enough to look ahead with optimism.
Speaking after the game, Head Coach Chris Laidlaw said: "I'm really proud of the effort of the player group to keep fighting after a tough spell just after half-time.
"We showed that when we can get entries into the opposition 22, we are effective and can convert pressure into points. I thought there was some great attitude in our defence and we look forward to building on that over the new few weeks."
Warriors now face the Irish outfit Wolfhounds at home on Saturday 13 December. Laidlaw said "We know that we need to keep working hard at developing our game to continue to grow on and off the field.
"I thought our set piece functioned well today so with that platform we need to try and use that to continue applying pressure to the opposition and launch our attack.
"We will take the positives from this week and look forward to getting back to Scotstoun on Tuesday as we prepare for our first home game next weekend against a strong Wolfhounds outfit."
