Lightning Compilation Of An Intense Lightning Show From Livermore, CA (9-11-2017)
A pretty neat lightning compilation from an epic lightning storm seen at night from Livermore, CA. Don't think I've ever seen so much lightning in one sitting!
An outbreak of t-storms occurred in the Bay Area on Monday evening, September 11, 2017, giving the region a weather spectacle rarely seen in the area. The strange weather was thanks to a slow-moving low pressure area that had set up off the California coast...
Weather synopsis:
It all started with bizarre isolated wind gusts between 35-50 mph that roared thru parts of the South Bay early a.m. (due to collapsing t-storms). By daybreak, hot & humid conditions arrived & then came the rain, thunder & lightning. The strange weather conditions were additions to the already unusually warm & humid weather pattern the Bay Area had been experiencing. The area saw 800+ lightning strikes & cloud flashes between noon & 5 p.m.! About 7,000 flashes lit up the skies across the region at night. In an unusual display of weather madness, Mother Nature had drenched parts of the Bay Area with brief heavy rain Monday night & zapped some areas with lightning while leaving other areas untouched. Looking ahead, our normal weather pattern was to return by late week.
