Several thunderstorms came through Baker, one at 2pm and another slow-moving one at 8-10pm. It produced a lightning strike, cloud-to-cloud and cloud-to-ground about every 5 seconds for at least an hour. This storm was focused mostly over the Elkhorn mountain range to our west, and it only sprinkled a small amount of rain on us. The earlier storm did the same thing rain-wise, however, it was situated south of us near Baker City instead of over the mountains. |

At 11:45 pm last night, a severe thunderstorm came through the area with a quarter inch of rain in 15 minutes. The lightning was nearly continuous throughout the course of the storm. No hail fell.

It was one of the worst storms since 2011 for right in my backyard. |
