▶️ Your video and photos: Central Oregon thunder, lightning and rainbows

  |  

You’d have to be in a soundproof dungeon not to have heard or seen the thunder and lighting rolling through the High Desert Thursday night.

Here are just some of the dozens of photos and videos you sent us via weather@centraloregondaily.com and info@centraloregondaily.com. 

The video above was taken from northeast Bend, looking east. You can make out the double rainbow with a vertical lightning strike going through it.

This is one of our favorite shots. Look how the rainbow seems to act a border, surrounding the orange beneath it. Thanks to Marisela Berlanga for this one.
