Randy Small - Whatcom County Weather

As the last light began to fade off the top of Mt. Baker tonight, I captured the near full moon rising between the silo and a pancake stack of lenticular clouds! What a stunning night! Whatcom County, WA #wawx #fullmoon #moonrise #whatcomcounty

Yes! We have a winter weather advisory in the mountains from 11 AM today (May 15) through 8 AM Sunday! That just raised today's rating to a 7/10, but there is more!!! We also have a chance of thunderstorms, so if that happens, it will be a perfect 10/10 day!! #mountains #mtbaker

May 15, 2026 - 10 AM It's snowing at Paradise in Mt. Rainier NP!! #wawx #PNW #mountains

Fri. into this weekend may see snow levels down at or below the Mt. Baker ski area. Currently, the forecast is calling for some snow as an upper-level trough swings through the area. The ski area could see a few inches of snow, while the higher elevations may see more. #mtbaker

Lovely rain this morning!! Radar from earlier this morning. #wawx #whatcomcounty

Port Moody lightening..

Fun shot from @Brad604’s of an elevated cumulonimbus over Mt Baker — scattered thunderstorms moving across Metro Vancouver with little rain and lots of lightning but impossible to see the CBs close up! 7:11p | 12 May 2026 #ShareYourWeather #BCStorm #BCStormWatch @RandySmall

@RandySmall Can confirm, I counted 3 strikes. I am sure they were more.

Got one really good Bolt on camera. Over 50 Lightning flashes across Metro Vancouver this evening. Unexpected since this wasn't where the storms were meant to fire.

Wow! Lots of lightning to the west of Point Roberts!! May 12, 2026 6:14 PM #pnw #whatcomcounty #wawx

Now a new thunderstorm on the Olympic Peninsula! #wawx #pnw

Thunderstorm just south of Vancouver, BC! #bcstorm

Thunderstorm at Harrison Hot Springs and Harrison Lake #BCwx #BCstorm
