Extreme Weather

The wind's pouring/blowing quite strongly. I don't think we should go climbing today.

It's blowing/pouring with rain. Let's stay in and watch a film.

Wow! That lightning/tornado during the storm last night was amazing! I could see the whole street even though it was dark.

The level of the river rose/poured quickly because it was raining so hard.

There was a terrible flood/lightning last year. The whole village was under water.

Have you ever seen a tornado/flood moving across the desert? It's amazing how fast they can go.
