Yesterday was a good day to cloud-watch. It was hot, humid, and the atmosphere was a little unstable. Cumulus began towering which created some fascinating formations.

Scud, the lowest level of clouds, are roiled in advance of an impending rain shower.

I very much appreciate your patience! Computer issues are resolved so I expect to resume my mostly-every-day posts.

July’s first half was hot, humid, and frequently cloudless so we endured what we had to. The last ten days or so were like this – a few degrees cooler, often filled with billowing cumulus, and frequent light to moderate rainfall. What a relief!
We will see what August sees fit to bring our way.

Large as they are, Turkey Vultures become insignificant motes when set against the background of All Things.

On a recent summer morning this towering cumulus presaged rain. Not for us, for fortunate others. Good for them!

Morning cumulus formations resemble the formations of the bush beneath it.

Not a political reference. It is a reference to how, from bottom to top, the bush, low grey stratocumulus and higher cirrus clouds, contrail, and hydro line added interest to to this lovely afternoon view and my attempt to capture it.

A young tree reaches up to embrace blue sky and white clouds.
