Carol Escajeda noticed this cloud formation and said it looks like a pelican to her. Do you agree?
I can see it!
Thanks to Carol for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
We thought it was going to rain today but no! Lots of sunshine though clouds are beginning to roll in. At Rick's and my place in Anchor Bay, we had 1.38 inches last night, 1.93 inches from the two days, 49.83 season to date. 50 inches is a nice, wet season!
Ben Angwin was at Gualala Point Regional Park when the fog started to roll in. He had a unique view of a fogbow, one over land rather than the ocean.
Ben said his camera could "see" it better than his eyes. I've noticed this too and it's helped me see them with the naked eyes!
Lots of rain has been hitting the Mendonoma Coast. I have 1.65 inches in my gauge since it started late yesterday, which brings my total to 49.55 inches. 50 inches is a "normal" wet winter. We are definitely going to hit 50 inches as it's currently raining and more rain is headed our way...with some thunderclouds. Yikes!
Catherine Miller saw this beautiful sight from her home on the ridge south of Point Arena.
So beautiful! Thanks to Catherine for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
We are being inundated with rain today. It's pouring! It looks like the eye of the storm is coming right over us here on the Mendonoma coast. Since this morning around 7:30 we have received 3.58 inches and it's still raining hard as I write this at 4:25 pm. And we received 2.42 last night. I am nearing 45 inches season to date. 50 inches is a nice rain year.
I've seen Scarlett Waxy Caps in the forest, but I've never seen a wooden photographer taking a photo of one!
Hope you enjoy this fun photo taken by Craig Tooley. To see much more of Craig's nature photography, here is the link to his website: http://www.ruffimage.com
Rain and more rain! 7.87 inches since Friday. 48.60 season to date. A "normal" wet winter here is 50.00 inches. We're going to surpass that number.
Yesterday we had the first storm, which brought 1.94 inches of rain. I almost couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the color in the sky. I don't believe I've seen the sky look quite like this before.
The colors intensified for a minute as the sun began to sink below the horizon. I saw a green flash for a second or two. I caught a hint of it in the photo below.
At 4 pm on Sunday, we've had a little over 0.90 inches and it's still raining. My season to date roared past 41 inches yesterday. 50 inches is a "normal" wet winter at Rick's and my place in Anchor Bay. Hooray!
