September 6, 2013 - Two Days of Weather!

Day1 - Sunrise

Day 1 - Storm coming in

Day 2 - Everything washed clean

Day 2 - More storms forming

Day 2 - Sunset and quiet

We had quite the thunderstorm and deluge yesterday.  There were flash flood warnings activated in numerous locations, a tornado touched down in one spot, and the power was dicey at best.  The winds were strong, the rain came down in sheets, and the lightning was frequent, close and loud.  A friend and I were driving back home from Portland.  We had to pull over for a while to let the storm pass - there was just too much water on the road.  We were over 100 miles from home...and home was being visited by the same storm.  My husband has photos of standing water all around his shop, which simply doesn't happen here!
 
The good side of all this?  My friend and I and my husband all love watching storms!  Always have, probably always will.  It was fun to have a front-row seat!
