WeatherPix: Cool weather photos from around the country
August 20th, 2012 by Matthew LeachIt’s good to be back in Washington. When we arrived last night, there was a dramatic temperature difference of about 20 degrees, and boy did it feel great!
As we scaled the Cascades on our return trip, we caught this picture of clouds streaming down the mountains:
Of course, that picture just
doesn’t do the actual sight justice! But I found a few other
weather photos taken this weekend that you may be interested
in.

Usually these cool pictures come just before, during or
immediately after severe storms. I kinda wish we had more storms
over on this side so we could snap some cool photos! But Western
Washington’s stormy period doesn’t start until October, so we have
a ways to go 
If you have any cool weather photos to

As for your 7 day forecast, isn’t it amazing to believe we were well into the 90s this past weekend and will be as low as the mid 60s by Thursday? Summer will take a brief break as Tuesday through Friday highs will dip well below normal in the mid to upper 60s with mostly cloudy skies.
The weekend forecast is still a little iffy as of now. Some models are saying a strong trough of low pressure will swing through the area, while others paint a large ridge of high pressure building up, which would bring high temperatures to normal or above normal levels. For now, I left the forecast mostly cloudy with highs below normal, but that’s subject to change!
Stay tuned to this blog for further updates!
