The picture of the Sutter Buttes that I have in my album was taken during the fires that burned through Lassen, Tehama and Shasta counties last year. The entire sky was a deep, dark red orange. We thought they would never stop. we as in (ARC). So many homes lost.
Plenty of hail in the past but never grape sized.
This early in the season is very unusual. Yeah that Moonlight fire was a big one last year. I drive through the chared trees every time I go to my cabin.
I just found out that lightning hit my property up there on Sunday.
I am going up Saturday and am hoping to get a picture of the ground where it hit. Too wet to start a fire thank god.
