In the latest round in the unending battle between the clouds and the wonders of the Universe which they can and will obscure every chance they get, tonight we got this at sunset:
That’s due west right at sunset. Ignore the trees, they aren’t the problem.
Somewhere out there also was the “Pink Super Moon” rising. It’s not just a theory, I know it was there and rising because I have a great deal of faith in celestial mechanics.
But in every direction all you could see were clouds.
There were spots where a bit of fading blue showed through, but there were more places where the cloud deck was thick and threatening.
I saw reports from friends around the LA area that in places it was even starting to rain. (Which, as I said last night, we sorta desperately need, but…)
So no “super moon,” pink or otherwise for us. Just maybe some drizzle so I can shut off the sprinklers for one more night.
