Thinking Of Cascade Mountain Drive After Night Of Texas Thunderstorms
I saw that which you see here, this 3rd November morning, on Facebook. A look at some mountain scenery on Highway 20, on the last day of the previous month of October.
Highway 20 is a road which traverses through the valley in which I lived prior to moving to Texas, traversing from Anacortes, through the town I grew up in, Burlington, and on east, through North Cascades National Park, before making its way to Eastern Washington.
At my current location I could drive hundreds of miles in any direction and not find any snow-covered mountains.
At my current location, Wichita Falls, Texas, last night, I got to experience one of the wildest storms I have ever experienced. Rain began pouring down about an hour before midnight. And then from midnight on, til daylight, almost nonstop lightning lit up the night and disturbed the possibility of sleep with booming thunder.
A few miles north, across the Red River, in Oklahoma, last night's storm produced multiple tornadoes
Thunderstorming and heavy rain is currently scheduled to start up again in about an hour.
I currently do not know if my regular outdoor endorphin inducing aerobic activity is going to be doable, due to weather woes, requiring walking in Walmart, instead, which never is even remotely aerobic....
