Last week, on the day after the first day of Fall, I came home from work to find it was so chilly I had to close all the windows in the house. But I'm not ready for a closed house, not yet.
Within a few days, and after a notably cold summer, we were experiencing record breaking heat, I was at the beach and swimming in the Ocean.
Two nights ago when we slept we had two fans pointed right at us (we don't have ac) and I could manage only a thin sheet on me. The house was quite warm still.
Yesterday, suddenly, it rained and stormed. There was thunder (!) lightning (!!) and double rainbows (!!!). Not everyday occurrences around here.
Last night when I went to bed there were no fans, the duvet was back on the bed, and in order to fall asleep I even needed to pull a quilt down for more warmth. I haven't checked the weather for this weekend, and I have no idea what to expect.
Photos from yesterdays post storm afternoon walk.
california sunsets are the most beautiful of all the sunsets...
ReplyDeletewell, not counting hawaii.
It's been a weird year. And a weirder week.
ReplyDeleteI loved that little storm. The sky was insane.
the third photo down is absolutely beautiful. did you use digital or instax? it's perfect.
ReplyDeleteall digital!
ReplyDeletewe had that crazy storm as well, all our power went out and the lightning was nuts. It was still hot and muggy as balls though. Gross combo.
ReplyDeletesounds like ohio weather has taken a vacation to california. hope you like it as much as we do. :D
ReplyDeleteCompletely beautiful photos--I love how insane the light gets before and after big storms like that, it's almost creepy.
ReplyDeleteThe weather you described is basically what's happening where I live (in Seattle) as well--I'm so tired of this bi-polar weather after a non-existent summer, I just want the seasons to be normal!
Loved this nice recap of our SD weather. Loved seeing that double rainbow!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots. A friend of mine captured the double rainbow too. I'm craving a good thunderstorm.
ReplyDeleteMother nature, you have to love it. She certainly keeps us on our toes. Weather this year has certainly been interesting. Love the photos, especially the double rainbow.
ReplyDelete*WANT* a big print of the cactus shot. Gorgeous, J.
