More sunrises

We aren’t getting up any earlier, but since the sun is rising later, we’re still getting to see some sunrises. This was about 7:13 on Wednesday.

This was three minutes later.

This was at 7:18.

And this was at 7:29.

But wait, there was more sky up there.

There are some nice wave-form clouds up above the lower dark clouds. There are some faint waves oriented differently from most of the other waves, which indicates wind shear in the upper atmosphere. Wind shear can consist of regions of the atmosphere that have varying wind speeds, or that have winds blowing in different directions.

Do you see the dark spots in the lower part of this image? Those are birds.

  1. Robin — I do love looking out our bedroom window in the morning. I would sleep with the curtains open so I could watch everything from bed, but Leah doesn’t want the sun shining in her eyes, or the lamp beside our driveway.
