As we sat in the ballpark last night watching a rather disappointing game (for our team, anyway), I was fascinated to watch the leading edge of the most distant reaches of Irene started through Durham. This made for some interesting cloud-watching.
Here we had some rain overnight and it's intermittently breezy. They're calling for some more of the same in our area, but portions of the coast are getting battered. By this evening, the storm is supposed to be heading northward, and she should be steadily losing strength.

That is a pretty neat picture! Be safe! new follower:)

ReplyDeleteMy daughter just moved to Greensboro and I was worried about the area with the storms coming through. The sky shot is amazing and eerie at the same time. Hope you all stay safe from Irene.

That is such a gorgeous color. I would love to see a sunset such as that. So pretty! We were nervous about Irene here outside of Philly, but everything turned out ok in our neck of the woods. So thankful!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Even though the source is rather scary of course. Please take good care this week.
