Convective discussion for eastern OR

Beautiful afternoon to be outside. 80 degrees. Just could've been a couple degrees cooler, but we need the heat The HRRR seems to show some lightning move up the EPSL around 11pm scraps will be welcomed.

Random person: Those are just clouds You/me: SHUT UP, they're gonna do "cool sh*t" later.

9:56 PM tonight.
