Lightning, rain, and Red Flag Warnings in parts of California

lightning California
Lightning during the 24-hour period ending at 7 a.m. PDT August 24, 2020. The yellow strikes are the most recent.

So far the thunderstorms that Californians were worried about that could ignite even more wildfires did not have much effect in the Bay Area overnight. But lightning strikes were detected in the Sierras along with rain — none, or less than 0.05 inch generally, but some locations received more, as is the nature of thunderstorms.

In the Bay Area there is still a chance of thunderstorms Monday morning, with decreasing chances in the afternoon.
