Thunderstorms are a Rumblin'

The Cascades have had quite a bit of thunderstorm activity over the last few days including some boomers in the metro area.  Some of these squalls are accompanied by copious sums of precipitation in the form of rain and hail.

My son and I we returning from Central Oregon on Father's Day and after glorious sunshine in Bend we found heavy rain in Sisters just a few miles away.  The sun returned just a few miles away in Redmond only to followed by a violent cloudburst at Warm Springs with lightning, thunder and a torrential deluge of rain.

Late spring Weather in the Northwest can be quite entertaining as the rainy season is coming to a close but not quite done.  The warmer temperatures associated with June can cause storms to be more robust.

Get outside and enjoy the weather, whatever the weather :)
