Slight chance of thunderstorms in the lowlands today. Much higher chances in the Cascades and Eastern WA.

Much of western WA is under a general risk of thunder today. A few showers and thunderstorms are possible in the Cascades & Foothills later this afternoon. If planning to be outdoors, stay weather aware today, and have a safe shelter nearby to go to (if thunder roars).

Highly recommend taking a look at this! You never know when a natural disaster may strike - it is always better to be prepared than unprepared.

You may need to survive on your own after a disaster. This means having your own food, water and other supplies in sufficient quantity to last for as long as two weeks.

Showers out there today - one on the King-SnoCo line causing thunder and lightning! Just struck either the Thrashers Corner Fred Meyer or very nearby - flash and instant thunder while I was shopping inside!

Take precautions if outdoors for Easter festivities!

This is a great, more detailed breakdown of what happened to the severe thunderstorms forecasted for yesterday.

There may be some questions about yesterday's weather! We've done a bit of a review of the event and hope that this can help answer some lingering questions. We do want to thank everyone for their pictures and reports as things happened!

Even though the storms tonight did not become severe (there were a number of reasons that contributed to this), there was still abundant lightning and some pretty fantastic cloud structure.

To keep it short - we did not have quite enough daytime heating today thanks to the lingering cloud cover, and the boundary layer stayed too stable to support strong to severe thunderstorms.

Regardless, most people got a good light show this evening!

Check out this pretty epic crawler bolt slo-mo my husband James managed to catch tonight!

If you receive hail today that is larger than what we usually see here (pencil eraser sized, maybe a little larger is common here) - this is the best way to measure it for accuracy.

US National Weather Service Seattle Washington will be very appreciative for accurate hail measurements along with your location and any other observations you can provide, such as temperature, wind gust information, etc.

Penny to quarter sized hail is the most likely size for most locations should they see large hail.
