Virga Bow at Sundown |
The last couple of times I've gone over to Grandview Park to look for a rainbow, all I got was rained on. It's only at unexpected times that I actually see one, including this "virga bow" I stumbled upon when I looked out my rear, east-facing, window shortly before sundown yesterday. Although I'd been somewhat rained on during a bike ride earlier in the day, it appeared that no rain was actually reaching the ground when this bow appeared.
There wasn't enough daylight left to run a timelapse, and I only fired off four frames before the sunset color drained out of the clouds and the bow broke up.
Since I'm already posting something, I might as well toss in a few phone snaps I shot during my walk and bike ride yesterday. My daily walk down Noriega Street takes me right past the scene of the 22nd Avenue house explosion, which happened the day I biked to Mt. Tam. It happened right around the time of morning that I'm usually walking by there. People heard or felt the blast from many blocks around.
