Between yesterday’s downpours and todays, there were a few minutes this morning with partial clearing, some blue skies and sunshine, two squirrels back in the yard, light showers overhead, and a tiny little sliver of rainbow. I ran outside with my phone, spooking the squirrels. (Sorry, guys!)
I missed. All of the elements (Sun, rain, alignment) were all still there, along with a howling wind, but the colors that had been there ten seconds earlier were gone and never returned.
The clouds, however, were spectacular!
I guess that was the prize for getting out there right at that moment. A half hour later (and all afternoon) it’s been grey, windy, and wet.
The forecast for some snow flurries keeps getting pushed back and getting to be less and less likely, but I’ve got my new snow shovel at the ready, just in case!
