July 25, 2009 Vancouver BC Lightning Storm
tags:On July 25, 2009, there was a lightning storm move East-to-West through Vancouver. Not only is this type of storm abnormal for this area, but so is weather coming from the East (seeing as how our weather patterns move in from the Pacific and head East). After weeks with very little rain, the surrounding mountains are tinder dry, so the risk of forest fire is severe!
Great show.
Great show.

I always figured that northvan got the harsher rain/snow due to the elevation, but was it ever scary during a thunderstorm. Literally felt like the lightning was outside the front door, ridiculously loud. Many times we thought someone had dropped something large and shatterable inside the house, until we realized it was the just the thunder.
Damn nature, you scary.
