Hello from the rockpile
During the last 3 hours of the Monday-Tuesday night shift, we enjoyed watching a lightning show that was occurring over the southern reaches of the Kingdom. At the night to day shift change, Tim and I noted that the radar showed small thunderstorms remained over the North Woods. Later, while getting some sleep, I was awaken by the familiar simultaneous bang-crack sound that is only made when lightning strikes nearby-very nearby!
After awakening and wandering to the weather room, Tim confirmed that lightning had definitely hit the summit. Tim stood smiling as I looked at the weather coding sheet for the morning. The observation between 9 and 10 was longer than usual and included thunderstorms, rain showers, 1/4 inch hail, small hail, and snow pellets! Yes, snow in July!
