Snoqualmie Falls this evening at 6:45pm, when the flow was at 65.9 kcfs. Still can’t believe how incredible it was seeing THAT much water come over the falls. #WAwx

What a day! With 1.64" of rain at Sky Harbor, we have completely eliminated our Monsoon 2025 rainfall deficit. This also tied for the 18th wettest monsoon day on record in Phoenix. #abc15 #abc15wx #azwx #az #wx #arizona #weather #phoenix #monsoon2025 #azmonsoon #rain

I know that Dust devils occur on the microscale in meteorology, however, every single "biggest of the big" Dust devils that I have witnessed were spinning cycloncially. Maybe something going on with a larger scale thermal process in Eastern WA when conditions are favorable? Smaller dust devils are a coin flip.

A brave @amazon delivery driver makes sure the packages are delivered on time even as a haboob dust storm chases the delivery van up I-10 during an Arizona monsoon storm that packed 70mph winds. #azwx 📸 @rebilasphoto

I think I have a new entrant into my top 10 bolts of all time from a sunset storm tonight near Vicksburg, AZ while chasing with the 🐐 @MikeOlbinski And I got it with two cameras! One at 24mm and the other at 70mm. Which one is better? #azwx 📸 @rebilasphoto

The elk in Cannon Beach Oregon were enjoying the sun and the sand a few days ago. ❤️😎 In all my years in Oregon, I have only ever seen them in the town but not on the sand. Pretty cool.

RAGER… the waterfalls in the Columbia River Gorge are running heavy after a couple inches of rain the last few days. Multnomah Falls sounded like a jet engine as tons of water pour over the cliff this morning. Wow! Happy Friday, be safe! #LiveOnK2 #FridayVibes #MultnomahFalls
