Thunderstorm in Vancouver

Photos From Last Night

While Vancouver is no stranger to rain, last night’s long and violent lightning storm was something that doesn’t happen very often. Beginning at approximately 9 pm on Thursday evening, the heavy rainfall warning came true and was followed by frequent flashes of lightning and loud thunder for nearly an hour. According to Environment Canada, nearly 1,000 lightning strikes were recorded throughout the storm’s duration

I stood on Brandie's front balcony in her adorable little cottage house right next to YVR (the airport) and watched this hammer down... mommy mol got mad, then got us some free 'za.
