What do angry clouds portend for the seasons ahead?

These were the angry clouds that moved slowly through early this week.  Habringer of turbulent summer weather to come?

Cotton puff sky highlights Ole Glory

I was watching the sky today as we moved around the city on chores.  This shot was while I was at Kinsel Ford dropping off a vehicle which needed repairs.  I was struck by the contrast between the cotton puff clouds in the  background and in the foreground the American flag flapping actively in the breezes brought in by a cool front.

Sunset near the Indiana-Michigan border

This was a recent sunset from near the Indiana-Michigan border. The cool night seemed to make the colors crisper.

Ominous clouds can't deliver on rain threat

This was the weather system that blew past our neighborhood last night. Ominous as it might look, it was all bluster and no rain.  The air cooled down to about 80 degrees, and it turned breezy  -- but not even a sprinkle.

Nightfall hush

Nightfall out in the backyard.  Calm, quiet, still. As if the night had sucked the sound as well as the sun from the horizon.
