Had a six hour lightning storm and big time wind right over us at the river house in Parker on Monday night September 1st. It was so awesome. I swear I saw lightning striking everywhere around me for over 6 hours. I used my new olypmus digital camera to capture the images. I had the shutter open for 16 sec at a time. The photos turned out ok and some are blurry. Need to work on that. Still figuring the camera out. It's not easy to use! :comp

You are the king of lightning Mike. :good

Cool pics. :beer
Posted by: RIVERRATMIKE on Sep. 04 2003,9:15 am

Thanks! Now that I have my new digital camera and can leave the shutter open at 16 secs at a time, I'll be able to capture the bitchin lightning bolts. Stay tuned, monsoon season isn't over yet! :jumpie

Thursday night Havasu got over 2 inches of rain in 3 hrs. My street was pretty much washed out. Stay tuned for the lighting and damage photos

Mike cool pics! I also got to see the storm first hand. My wife and I watched it for about four hours from the Nautcial Inn. It was very cool we dont get storms like that in ontario. The wind blew so hard thursday night it blew over trees in the channel. and there was so much rain it washed out the beach from the tie up wall in the channel.
Posted by: RIVERRATMIKE on Sep. 09 2003,12:32 am

so you were here in Havasu on Thursday night when the big storm hit?
Posted by: procraftkev on Sep. 09 2003,3:39 pm

Ya we were there it was great! Ive never seen so much rain in so little time. It did alot of damage. I pulled my boat out about 4:00pm and what was really funny I went to check on the boat after the rain stoped and the automatic bilge pump was on must have pumped out three gallons. :good
Posted by: RIVERRATMIKE on Sep. 09 2003,4:08 pm

Wow! I was in Parker at my river house when the storm hit. It was so insane and there was severe thunderstorm warnings all over the television that night. If you go to my Topic (Biggest Storm Yet) you can see what images I captured from that Thursday night.
Posted by: mbrown2 on Sep. 09 2003,8:15 pm

Cool Pics...we left earlier that day and hit a cloud burst outside of Desert Center...I kind of wish, I could have sat on the dock and watched it.. :good
Posted by: RIVERRATMIKE on Sep. 09 2003,10:41 pm

oh I did! I had my camera set up on the dock for just a few minutes but had to take cover cause the lightning was about a quarter mile away from me and was getting way to close for comfort!
Posted by: BigBoyToys on Sep. 10 2003,5:07 am

<00FFFF'>Nice Pics :good   I love thunderstorms.  I had a bolt of lightning hit about 50 feet from me once and it nearly knocked me on my rear.  After I got my hearing back, I went right back to sitting down watching the storm :D

since I can't reply to the Monsoon thread AZKC posted, I watched the news yesterday and monsoon season here in AZ officially has not started yet. It's getting of to a late start. When the dewpoint averages 55 degrees or higher for 3 consecutive days then that is the start of the monsoon season. Just a little high presure in Mexico is causing moisture to stream into your area this evening...

I'm not a weather forcaster but I'm just saying what I heard from the experts ;)
Posted by: RIVERRATMIKE on July 08 2004,7:26 pm

it's been about 107 here in Havasu each day and a low of 84 at night. I love it!  :good
Posted by: AZKC on July 08 2004,7:26 pm

Actually if ya dig deep into to Monsoon stuff,  the Monsoon is the wind shift that carrys the moisture up from Mexico, back I think it was the 40's or 50's some group of weather guys from the Southwest came up with the 54*(not 55*) dealio.  I've been down here a long time and used to think the same as everyone else, but some stuff came out a few years ago to verify. There is really no official start or stop unless you take into acount when the winds shift back to a more normal west to east pattern.

yeah true, the monsoon starts first in the eastern deserts and slowing will move towards the west, (where I am). It's been clear here and no signs of any rain or monsoons starting up anytime soon

So what are you saying AZKC that it is monsoon time.  :eek
Posted by: AZKC on July 08 2004,7:32 pm

TV weather people in general are very far from experts as far as weather goes, their just reading teleprompters. If you want Here's a link to our local guru on weather he may explain it better

Posted by: BigBoyToys on July 08 2004,8:39 pm

<00FFFF'>Well, throughout my years, I've lived in Phoenix, Tucson, Nogales (Actually Rio Rico), Las Cruces, NM/White Sands Missile Range area (Organ Mountain) and I tell you what, out of all those places I've lived, the worse Monsoons I've experienced were in New Mexico.
But, that may very well be because I got to go out in them frequently because I was in charge of Disaster Services for the American Red Cross for a 5 county area(The 5 most southern Counties in NM, but was based in Dona Ana County).  Seen tornadoes, Microbursts, massive flooding(Whole towns), had a lightning strike about 50 feet from me(That scared the $hit outta me), many house fires, etc. all caused by Monsoon Storms.

<00FFFF'>Mrs BBT and I will be swapping engines this weekend.  I'm gonna start disconnecting all of the stuff today on the 468 and we'll probably pull the 468 out and install the 476 tomorrow morning.  Might be able to take it out SUnday for a test session, but I doubt it because I can just imagine what my bak will be feeling like by SUnday.
Our goal is to get the engines swapped, and then still have time to put the boat on the water at least 1 time before the Miller's Deal at Lake San Antonio, which is 2 weeks away.  SHouldn't have any problems with that goal but ya never know....
I know that the 476 has less HP than the 468, but it has been a VERY reliable engine for the past 4 years that I've owned it, and with 2 750's on it, the motor will push the boat into the mid 80's.

If I was in Nebraska and saw clouds like that I would go to the storm cellar and go to bed.

Those are what's called mamma (pronounced like magma without the "g" sound) clouds.  Most of the time they just look like little bumps on the bottom of the clouds, and that means it's a pretty nasty T-storm.  But if you see clouds that look like that, I'd be grabbin Toto and headin' for the basement.  :D

Last night we had, in order, wind, more wind, more wind, some dust, enough rain to make the streets wet, wind, more wind, thunder, wind, some dust to stick to the recently wet cars, wind, and that was it.

Oh, and the streets were dry as if it never rained 3 minutes after the 2 minute rainstorm.   :stupid

Lightning sparks fires


BY MARK HALL
Thursday, August 12, 2004 10:47 PM MDT

 

Several palm trees and their neighboring houses fell victim to lighting around Lake Havasu City Wednesday night and Thursday morning.

The lighting was a result of a violent electrical storm that blew into the city around 9 p.m. The storm brought thunder, wind and rain in scattered areas of the city.

One strike, which occurred about 9 p.m., ignited two tall palm trees along Avalon Drive and a few moments of excitement for nearby residents who were outside watching the storm.

"We were actually sitting out back. It just scared the hell out of everybody," said Jim Dixon, a nearby resident who in his backyard. "It sounded like Babe Ruth hit a 500-foot ball."


Dixon said the strike briefly lit up the neighborhood and ignited the tree it initially struck. With the winds, a palm tree next to it was also ignited.

Charlie Cassens, city public information officer, said the blaze also caused damage to a house next to the tree.

"The tree was engulfed in flames and the radiating heat caused a window to break and the curtains ignited, but were immediately extinguished by (Lake Havasu City) firefighters," he said.

Cassens said fire investigators believe simultaneous lightning strikes damaged a house on Park Terrace Avenue and ignited a neighboring palm tree. He said several appliances in the house failed and there was damage to the roof.

"There was also a hot spot on the roof that the firefighters extinguished," he said.

The Lake Havasu City Fire Department received several calls for service but Cassens said they were all related to the Avalon and Hidden Valley incidents.

As monsoon season progresses, Cassens said such light shows and instances of lightning strikes are normal.

"That is not uncommon for that type of storm we had last night," he said.

Last September, lightning destroyed a house on Star Lane. The family inside safely evacuated the house in what fire personnel deemed a "miracle."

We just got pummeled by a huge storm :eek I got home and cked the rain gauge and dumped 2 1/4" of rain water and thats was for about a 2 hour period. Took me about 45-50minutes to make a 15 minute drive home. Sheriff deputy got all pissed off when I drove my truck through about a foot of water. Flagged me down and got all bitchy :fight  wanted to play tough guy. Then I told him "Hey man I work for the county" He told me to be more responsible and I should know better and then he let me go :D

Posted by: RIVERRATMIKE on Aug. 17 2004,6:14 am

had another very strong storm in Havasu last night. It started about 8pm then died out about 10:30pm. Then it fired up again a 2:15am and woke me up. I went out side to see lightning flashes in the sky every second. It was awesome!!!! Then a couple of very powerful bolts came down less than a quarter mile from me. The thunder was just incredibly loud!!! Also got 0.28 inches of rain. :good
