Title: Wow! Severe Thunderstorms!
Post by: Seattle on July 03, 2008, 06:46:36 pm
Okay, depending where you live in the world, the weather can be very different, but here, since yesterday and into today, King County and Pierce County in Washington, where Seattle is located and its suburbs have seen consecutive severe thunderstorm warnings, with quarter and even golf sized hail with winds up to 60 mph......

This is incredibly rare, we get a sever thunderstorm warning about every 10 years. the last timw we had one was in 2006 and before that, 1989..... :shock:

I know this may not be very amazing for some who live in the Midwest and in New England, but its incredibly rare here.

For a WEEK?
The Germans go crazy and have to call in the military if a Thunderstorm lasts for more than 3 houers (roads, dikes etc. are not built for so much water)

Yesterday we had a thunderstorm from the east which basically never happens so when I came home I had a nice little pool in front of my window :evil:
