Tuesday brought scattered thunderstorms to the area. Most of these storms were concentrated around the mountains, but around 7:45 pm a storm formed that brought heavy rain, hail, and frequent lightning to Benton City. This storm produced quarter-size hail, which was the only severe weather report yesterday in the entire country west of Interstate 25.
No analysis in this post, just some of the awesome pictures that were shared to me over on Tri-Cities Weather on Facebook. Enjoy!
Huge thanks to everyone who sent pictures! I also received a bunch of awesome videos, including some really good ones of the hail falling in Benton City itself. Unfortunately, I couldn’t figure out how to put them in the gallery so I had to keep them out.
I’d love to see more pictures! Head over to Facebook to share them to my weather page, and if you’re cool with them being added to the gallery please let me know!
