Skywatch - Promise of a Better Day

I was sitting at my computer catching up with my blog friends, thinking as I began to find Skywatch postings, that I wouldn't do one this week. Outside my window I noticed a glow, but went on blogging until it hit me. The sun was setting with an orange - red glow. By the time I finally got myself going I had almost missed it! While it's not a great photo, what it means is that THE RAIN HAS STOPPED! You know what they say. "Red at night, sailor's delight." Some of those sailors are right now in row boats in their yards rescuing people, pets and prized possessions. Relief is in sight. For more sky pics go here.

  2. That is beautiful. We got a little of that tonight, but I wasn't quick enough to catch. Hmmm that seems to be true with me much of the time. Great photo! Have a great weekend!

  4. It is a welcome sight I'm sure with all the rain and flooding causing misery for everyone in your corner! Here's hoping that the sunshine will dry up all the rain!

  12. Great shot. Thanks for taking the time to do that. The colors can be so fleeting. Our snow is all gone now and the rains are subsiding, hopefully the rivers will retreat. MB
