Wednesday, we were under a severe thunderstorm watch. It had been unusually hot (for us in the Southern Tier of New York) earlier in the week and a cold front was going to be coming through. On Tuesday, we hit 92F (33.3C), which was nearly a record. I realize that type of heat in May is normal for many, but it isn't for us.
The sky agreed with the forecast. I took this picture as a passenger in our car as we were moving and I didn't see the structure on the left until I prepared to post this here.
Sure enough, we had a couple of rounds of thunderstorms later that afternoon, one of which had hail. Fortunately, no tornadoes were reported. Yesterday, it was cooler.
Early afternoon yesterday.
And, to end the day, a nice sunset.
Heavenly.
ReplyDelete...lots of drama, we only received some needed rain.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots!
ReplyDeleteI love the sun beam pointers through the clouds. They always say, Stop! Take a moment! Pay attention!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! The skies many moods. Those really do look like pointers!
ReplyDeleteWow. Those clouds.
ReplyDeleteMy family loves a good rainstorm--no tornadoes, however, please. Glad your storm was just sound and fury and nothing more! Lovely pictures! I can almost smell the air!
ReplyDeleteI have been having a terrible time commenting on your blog. Neither my phone, nor my iPad will connect me. Sigh. At least I'm still considered a real person on my desktop!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots!
ReplyDeleteThose angry skies and storms were the price we sometimes have to pay for that beautiful sunset.
ReplyDeleteDramatic skies!!
ReplyDeleteThose were all great photos. 92 is hot for now, we haven't gotten there yet. It's raining now, and humid, which is something I don't care for.
ReplyDeleteYes, they do look like pointers ... adding interest and mystery to the brooding sky scene.
ReplyDeleteScrolling down, scrolling down, scrolling down and then the sunset. Blog kept me interested in what is coming next. Nice job!
