Fall finally arrived, chasing our later summer away. The days have been mild, the nights cool, and the sky blue.
There was some humidity in the air Saturday morning when I walked the dogs down into Texas Valley.
Since our house faces east, we can see the sun rising, but not going down. But there are still some nice sunsets, even if we can’t actually see the sun setting.
The cats seem to think our sofa is more comfortable than we do.
There isn’t much room left for us. Sam photobombed the cats.
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.
