Weather


         "There's no sun up in the sky..."
                                  -Ethel Waters

    The last couple of weeks have seen some weather, a refreshing change from the hot humid and dry days we saw in June and July.   Storms didn't last long, but dumped precipitation at a prodigious rate.  Two or three times a week I pumped 4-6" of water out of the dinghies after another furious half hour storm.

The skies made for some great pictures.




   The clarity of the stormlines was cool to see. 









     The cloud formations were unusually dramatic for our region as well this summer.




     Marco was fortunate enough to shoot a waterspout forming Southeast of the Marina.   Although more common on the open lake, waterspouts are a rare sight on the Bay.
