Calm then Storm
The morning started out calm with some lovely views of the Cascade Mountains. Then, mid-morning, a decent storm cruised over and dazzled us with some lightning and thunder and enough rain to refill about half our 275-gallon tote.
Urban electric transportation and hauling never looked so good.

Heard a bit online that some monster sunspots facing Earth had spewed off a few solar flares that might combine to make for aurora here. I kept an eye on the space weather forecast and my rooftop meteor cams back in Seattle (the first two images) and saw it was happening.
