| Storm Blowing Through San Francisco |
Hanging out at Grandview Park this morning was the best show in town. The wind was often blowing at 15-25 mph, with occasional forays into the 30s. The most powerful gust I recorded on the wind speed unit was 38.5 mph. Despite all the wind, it really didn't rain very much. Ditto for last night. The wettest parts of the storm must have passed to our north and south.

| At the foot of a rainbow, Golden Gate Park's Murphy Windmill was catching the southern wind while large waves broke with dramatically billowing spindrift along Ocean Beach. |
 |
| I spent so much time at the park that I got to watch the rainbow shifting across the horizon. In this shot at 10 a.m., the top of the bow is over the Richmond District. |
 |
| By noon, when this was shot, the top of the bow is over Blue Heron Lake (Strawberry Hill is the high point just to the left of center). The bow has shifted east, but it's also lower in the sky (since the sun is higher). |
A quick clip from Grandview Park just before I left.
