This update brought to you buy a powerful weather system

Since I do not know how much longer I get to be online today I am posting a few last things. A storm has hit Oregon, western Oregon actually, around the Salem area, with threats of hail, tornadoes and all sorts of other fun stuff too. And it is heading up my way now, with the front of the thunder system a odd 30-50 miles out well probably about an hour tell it hits. We just got pelted with a wall of wind (about an hour ago), and have been since then hearing thunder, having light to strong wind and rain hitting us. About half an hour ago I saw a lightning strike, took about 90 seconds to hear it, color purple. Right now it is raining lightly all be it, but according to the weather channel the main section of the storm is heading north towards Vernonia. Vernonia is close enough to where I live that I am worried about what is going to hit, and right now(18:07 PST) the rain is increasing in strength.

Well that is all for now lightning in close proximity at 18:08 PST!!!

Hump... Other than the two lightning strikes at my house (at 18:08 PST) and the heavy wind that was a disappointing storm...

Whatever though we are still being warned of continued thunderstorms, so there maybe more fun weather on its way.
