Fresh snow on the Olympic Mountains
Nov 28th 8:00 AM |
The picture above shows the new look of the Olympic Mountains as seen from our place. At summer's end just about all the snow had disappeared and it is nice to see it back again. The first potential for new snow here in the city of Seattle appears to be in the next few days as some cold air moves in from the north. The picture below doesn't do justice to the majesty of the sky at the moment of the snap. It was predictable, however, with a solid overcast above and a nice clearing along the western horizon. An amazing orange glow reflected from the clouds lasted for just a minute or two.

I always enjoy your sky pictures. We have fresh snow predicted here, too. Fortunately for me, tomorrow morning I fly off to Florida. Yay! :-)
