Driver captures heavy rain, hail in Blewett Pass

For the most part, Seattle was full of sunshine and warmth Sunday.

But for people driving across in Blewett Pass around 5 p.m., the weather was bit more challenging.

Facebook friends Nathan and Casey Ahrens shared this video with KIRO 7 on our Facebook page.

The video shows rain and hail pouring down on cars crossing the Cascades. Ahrens said he drove through the rain for about 10 minutes.

"It was really loud," Ahrens said. "Lots of cars were pulled over on the side of the road and motorcycles were pulled over and standing under trees."

But the downpour disappeared as quickly as came – the traffic cameras soon showed no rain or hail at the Pass.

A number of lightning strikes scattered the area as well. View below, or watch by clicking here.
