Storm Skies of The Vermilon River. A Post to Sky Watch.

All these photos were shot during the day. That is the sun, not the moon and the photos are in sequence. To follow them, keep your eye on the small blue spot in the upper left hand quadrant and watch it change as the sun emerges and then disappears again.

In # 1 & 2 the blue patch is shrinking and the sun is hidden by the white cloud totally. In #'s 3,4 & 6 pinks appear in the blue patch as it shrinks and the sun appears.

In #7, the sun is barely visible but the clouds are pitch black, and yes the storm was a beaut!!!

  After many complaints from me about the lack of snow we had a blizzard sweep in this week from Ohio. So be careful what you wish for. The photos show how the sky changed over a very short period. The temperatures with wind chill were about -22 C degrees and about 15-20 cm. of snow fell, but the real clincher was the drifting snow. We dug out continually, and finally managed to make it to the woods today.

The last photo is just a summer reminder. Remember Dec. 21st is equinox-equal day and equal night. But by the next day, the day is longer and the progression begins towards noticeably longer days. How's that for being an optimist? Boom & Gary of The Vermilon River.
