as I was going to sleep last night, I saw several (more than a half-dozen) flashes that seemed to be lightning, though I didn't hear any thunder. also there was a fair amount of wind and rain, and I *did* hear a tree fall over in the woods outside. did anybody else notice any thunder/lightning last night? I checked my available weather sources, but none mentioned it.

oh, that's for the Seattle area, heh. (I sometimes legit forget that not everybody on Mastodon lives in Seattle) :P

@green I saw the rain, missed the flashes. Do you know what general direction they were in? It's possible they were behind Magnolia hill from my direction.

@hummingrain not a clue--they were hidden behind my building, so I can't give a better idea than "generally south of me," and I'm right up on the border of Lake City, so that's not terribly indicative. XD

@green That actually makes sense for why I didn't see it! I have trees (bare right now, but still) and another building in the way of much of my south view.

Then again, knowing me I was probably dead asleep and not waking up for anything when it happened. :P

@green
Weird, I saw a couple of the flashes as well up in shoreline with no thunder.
