It was at 4-6 am when it was best. To the north. I counted over 30 seconds away. But the lightning map seemed to show strikes right near me so maybe I missed those ones.

I was woken up by thunder this morning and I'm not exactly a light sleeper, so it wasn't a complete bust.
The fact that it was about 3-5 AM is a bit of a buzzkill though because I wasn't awake enough to appreciate it.

It's called clown range for a reason.

Looks like a line of storms aiming at western metro. I might not be very productive at work...

Would be sweet if that choo-choo train of strong cells tracked over the city! Fingers crossed.

Up to 5.9 mm for the day IMBY.

I had better thunderstorms in the spring. The best ones are usually unforecasted, in my experience.

1 mm "storm" total so far.

That’s exactly what is happening. :lol:

Ladner might get in on the action though.
