The first storm of the winter has arrived.
Just before the rain started, and it wasn’t a hard rain, just steady, the undersides of the clouds were dramatic.
The mail carrier was driving up one side of the street and back down the other as I was wandering around in the street to get the best pictures with minimal interference from wires overhead. He was nice enough to not run over me.
The smell of petrichor was heavy just before this first rain. The rough underside of the cloud deck indicates that it’s a cold storm with a lot of turbulence.
It will be cold and wet here for several days.



Oopsie! To clarify, yes, the date is wrong. This was for Wednesday, 11/15/2023, not the 14th. Just a little tired here…
