I've always thought of this as a hallmark of this area-- and one of the many reasons I live here. Apparently I'm not the only one when loves to open the windows and leave them that way 24 hrs a day this time of year!<br />Is it really true we have cleaner air than other places?Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10874903487230690312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-90788158839534090102013-06-18T06:21:02.810-07:002013-06-18T06:21:02.810-07:00Dr. Mass

Growing up here I recall a grand total of 2 serious storms. The first was 1985 I think and gave us that great photo of downtown Seattle and the huge lightning bolt above it. The second was in August 1999. Both had hours of frequent lightning strikes and thunder loud enough to set off car alarms. <br /><br />Pulling out your scenario builder, what conditions would come together to create an incredibly memorable lightning storm? Is it even possible to bring together enough temperature differences to not be put to shame by the Midwest? Superhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06208358506896071732noreply@blogger.com
