A potent Pacific storm hit the region late Friday night and early Saturday, causing strong winds, thunderstorms, and power outages in Burien and south King County.
According to meteorologist Michael Snyder of Pacific Northwest Weather Watch, the system developed from a jet stream and
“brought some strong gusts”that struck areas such as Normandy Park and SeaTac.
Meteorologist Michael Snyder personally experienced the storm's impact, as his own skylight was ripped off his Normandy Park home during the wind event.
