This week has brought us the remains of Hurricane Polo (now a tropical depression) and another 2.5″ of rain to go with the 3″ we received last week. Lots of flooding around the state with more rain to come but so far, we’re just very muddy. Here’s a collection of rain shots from the last few weeks as well as a time lapse of Tschicoma Peak and the clouds racing below.
And a few videos of all the clouds that passed over last week and dropped 3 inches of rain.
More moisture has moved in finally and that means juicier clouds, rainbows and long awaited soaking rains. The Frijoles Fire flared up last week but should be getting smothered with the showers, thankfully.
We ventured up to Salida, CO for a short birthday expedition. The beautiful Arkansas River flows past downtown and there are lots of wonderful views of big mountains.
Another critter collection that includes our resident one-legged thrasher we’ve named Peg and the family of bobcats that Joan photographed. It’s also getting colder and the tarantulas are strolling long the roads in their annual migration.
Clearing out my backlog of movies and photos from the end of August’s weather and sky shots.
