Pure tropical air ahead of Henri created some Miami-like skies over Colchester Vermont Saturday evening. |
Even if that effect was slight to say the least.
Still, the sky over northwestern Vermont because of Henri were spectacular.
The haze from western wildfires was routed by the clean, but oppressive pure tropical air. The sky Sunday afternoon was some of the bluest I can remember.
Dying rain bands from Henri produced nothing more than the lightest sprinkle, but created some gorgeous rainbows on two evenings in a row.
Mid-level cloudiness associated with Henri also created some gorgeous patterns in the sky Monday morning, and prompted a gorgeous orange sunset Monday evening.
I took photos, and a few of them are in this post. Scroll down to see them all. Enjoy!
By Sunday afternoon, the sky turned perhaps the deepest blue I've ever seen, thanks to pristine, but very humid air brought in part by Henri straight from the Caribbean. |
Toward Sunday evening, the dying remains of an outer rainband from Henri, created a delicate pattern and a complex sky over St. Albans, Vermont. |
That dying rain band then produced a lovely rainbow. Here you can see a dragonfly scooting by in front of the rainbow. |
Mid-level clouds from Henri created these beautiful patterns in the sky over Burlington, Vermont Monday morning. |
Another rainbow, fainter than the night before, with no actual rain, from Henri's remains as viewed from St. Albans, Vermont Monday evening |
As Henri began to depart southern New England Monday evening, it threw out a nice sunset over St. Albans, Vermont |
Su-PERB photos Matt!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering about this (link) earlier and I think with climate change it's beginning to be a "thing" ?
