A Spring Sky Variety Pack #SkywatchFriday

Today, some skies from the last couple of weeks, mixed in with views of spring. 

Baby redbud, several years old, in a local park.  Our redbuds are finishing up now.
Yesterday, sky framed by a building.
This past week, rain ahead.
From Sunday, sky and white lilac.
Finally, from Sunday, sky before a rainstorm.

So far, we've had one of the wettest springs since our area started to keep weather records 73 years ago. 

Joining Yogi and other skywatchers for #SkywatchFriday.

    Not a terribly wet spring, although it pretty much poured all day yesterday. Today, though? Crystal clear. A little cool, but it's still morning. I'll take it over any day in August. Or January, for that matter.

    Interesting. It's not been a particularly wet spring here but it's looking like we may make up for that over the next several days. Your skies look very much like our skies recently.

    So, you're getting the rain. I heard it's drought conditions elsewhere. I know we're under our usual rain totals (and we really don't get rain again until maybe October).
