Warm, windy and stormy

02/24/12, 4 pm, looking north

So many big beautiful storm clouds--it was hard to choose one view of them. There was even a rainbow this afternoon. What else can one expect when it is 81 degrees in February?


We had wind gusts of over 40 mph that broke off tree limbs and rattled the roof. There was thunder and lightning but only about a quarter inch of rain. It was a dramatic weather day more like the lion of early March than the groundhog of February.
