A dragon may have just eaten part of Washington state

If you didn't believe dragons existed before, now you can.

If you didn't believe dragons existed before, now you will.

Yesterday @whalesafaris pointed out on his local weather channel that Everett, Washington, was about to be eaten by a dragon. Maybe that sounded like a bit of hyperbole, but the radar photos suggest otherwise.

OK, so it's a storm in the shape of a dragon, but it's a very realistic dragon. Specifically Reptar from Rugrats, even though he's a dinosaur. Or that green dragon from DragonTales. Or the green dragon from Game of Thrones. Really most dragons, one dinosaur.

Except for Smaug. It doesn't look like Smaug.

Even though it's not a real dragon, I hope the storm that did hit was as cool as the weather report looked. If not, just reread Eragon.
