I'm over in Victoria right now and saw the flashes outside. I drove up to Mt Tolmie to watch. I have never seen so many strikes around southern BC. It was like watching storms in Alberta.

Watch upgraded to a warning. Better late than never, I guess.

Enjoy it!

Getting mesoscale rotation. Looks like a supercell. More lightning than I have seen in 30+ years of living on the West Coast. Will try to upload a video.
