Lightning Threat in Mountains | Seattle News

Thunderstorms roll through Western Washington, bringing scattered lightning and heavy downpours—but the real threat? Wildfires. With dry mountain vegetation and gusty winds, lightning strikes could ignite dangerous fires under a Red Flag Warning. Temperatures will cool into the upper 60s and 70s as storms pass, with sunshine returning later. Friday and Saturday promise warmer temps and sunnier skies—a welcome break from the heat. Stay alert, especially if you’re near the Cascades or Olympics. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
