First over SW Washington then spreading north along the east slopes of the Cascades, and more powerfully from near Rainier and Central Basin towards all of the east part of the state. E. Washington below the snowline away from the crest is very dry this spring.

I love thunderstorms. (But yes, hopefully they don't spark any big fires)

Things are pretty green up out of the valley around here. I'm not too worried about fires popping up. It rained hard over the weekend in the usual places and rained lightly down in the valley. Here's the warning for this part of the world. The river might come up and flood a bit also. Canada had a big snowpack that has been going by at a good clip. Storm warning

No fires, please.

Some areas boastin' forecasts for SEVERE thunderheads

Fun times. My kids love thunderstorms as the novelty they are here in W WA. A nightly family event in Yellowstone last summer, watching the electrical storms. Fun memories.

Pullman had a record rainfall of 1.25 inches on May 20th. Spokane and Lewisiton also saw record rainfall on that date.

HOT here today. My "highly accurate" thermometer said 97. Perhaps that will make tomorrow more thunderous. Poor Demon dog.

Distant thunder and black sky sw of Roslyn at 7:30. Moving closer along a traditional path. Get to see the show from my porch should it strengthen. No ground strikes, just rumbling thus far. The bulk of this cell is closer to the crest to the west/nw at the moment. Wow, there's a lot more going on right now than I realized: https://www.lightningmaps.org/?lang=en#y=47.1106;x=-121.1402;z=9;t=4;m=oss;r=0;s=0;o=1;b=1.20;n=0;d=4;dl=6;dc=0;ra=1;i=0;ts=0;

No kidding. This is huge! Glad it’s raining...and glad I’m not backpacking.
