dude that is awesome!!! Very rare treat for us

A lot of lightning but the storms are very high based, it's hard to see where it is

PDX tower to incoming flights:

Best lift/instability is gradually filtering in from the south. Should be a nebulous chance of recurring thunderstorms over the next 24-36 hours, coming in two primary waves with a few more errant cells in between. One, the band currently moving into the central sound, and two, another mid morning tomorrow. Not all the cells will have thunder.

Wonder if I’ll end up missing a second thunderstorm outbreak while gone on wedding and honeymoon. Oh well can’t complain. You’ll can thank me for making it happen.
