Moving in during the 1:00 p.m. hour, the storm brought dozens of lightning strikes combined with heavy rain.

In Aberdeen, the storm was accompanied by hail that gathered on lawns and homes.

BC Hydro reported an outage covering thousands of customers in Aberdeen and Upper Sahali, though CFJC Today received reports from residents suggesting power was still on.
