IF we get storms, I wonder if we will even be able to see anything because of the stupid smoke?! That would be our luck though. 😂 I imagine the smoke layer would just cause us to see a flash rather than any forked lightning...unless the smoke layer clears. I can't even see any CB's or even any other cloud formations out there except in a few spots. It just looks mainly overcast now.

Reports of thunder coming in from Bellingham on the AF.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I wanna be excited by what I see on radar but don't want to jinx it or get my hopes up for nothing. But it looks promising.
And this is just round one of possible several chances, correct?

It's pouring here now. Haven't seen the lightning even once but can hear thunder rumbling a few times.
