I almost (*almost*) wish I could tell readers that that’s dust in the background. It has been windy … forever, it seems.
But that’s smoke, and it rolled in like a crazy wall around 8 p.m. Timelapse video probably couldn’t have been more dramatic than the weirdly fast way it advanced.
In hopeful news, weather forecasters are giving us a 100 percent chance of rain on Saturday. … It must be true, right????! π
I told someone that, and he replied, “You’re either a fool or a newcomer if you believe that.”
Yeah. I’ll believe it when the rain is in my gauge.
Come for the mustangs, stay for the weather report. π
Meanwhile … obviously, the fire are still burning. Some good news there: About half of the evacuees from the 416 Fire have been allowed to return home.
BUT Saturday is TWO days away! I hope they are right, but boy the whole West needs rain right now – so badly.
That picture says it all, TJ – worth a thousand words and more to describe what we’re all having to endure. But wait…what are those gray things in the sky? Could they be clouds… I’m with you, TJ; when there’s something to measure in my rain gauge THEN I’ll believe it’s raining! π
Wow! Moving fast!
