Photos: Hail and snow dot the Puget Sound region
»Play Video
It's been quite the mix of sun, rain, hail and snow around the Puget Sound region Thursday.
Some cold air moved in, creating an unstable atmosphere that brought truth to the old adage, "if you don't like the weather, just wait 20 minutes."
(Although sometimes it seemed as if 20 minutes wasn't long enough!)
But some astute photographers have been out in the zaniness to capture it all on video.
Mike McLaughin put together this nice 5 minute recap of the hail in North Seattle:
Hail also moved through the Burien area Thursday afternoon:
Angry clouds also moved over Hansville, and then...sunshine, with a little rainbow for good measure:
Jonathan Cooper tried to join the fun and began filming as some ominous clouds formed over the Silver Lake area near South Everett, but alas the hail moved to the south:

The sun is out here in Tacoma.
How can anyone live in a neighborhood such as the one on the last video, in Everett? Doesn't anyone value privacy anymore?Â
If you can reach your hand out your bathroom window to borrow butt wipe from your neighbor then maybe your houses are too close!
Or you might be a redneck.
South of Puget Sound, yesterday we had one of the LOUDEST hail storms I've ever heard. Â Unfortunately it only lasted about 2 minutes, but it piled up the hail pretty nicely in my yard. Â Seriously though, LOUDEST hail storm ever! Â It scared the heck out of me and my dog.Â
