Thought I’d do a review of all that happened last week…. The "highlight" for me has been
computer issues… That took me off-line for several hours last week. I finally have
everything running smoothly… (knock on wood).
I’ll share some of the things I posted on Facebook and
Twitter here.
First, my cams had a HUGE photobomb by a violet green
swallow…
And then he came back for more a few minutes later.... Photogenic little bugger.... :)
Last weekend Cliff Mass asked if I could provide some wind
shear time lapse video. He used it in
yesterday’s blog: Cliff Mass's Wind Shear Blog
On Thursday May 4th we had one of the largest
electrical storms in many years. We were
spared the brunt of it, but still got some action. If memory serves, this is the only daytime
lightning strike my cams have ever caught.
During daylight hours my exposure time may be 1/125th of a
every 20 seconds. Night time it is set
to a 20 second exposure that occurs about every 35 seconds. So, daylight captures are very low odds. Here is the image:
Here is the video that includes the lightning strike.
Sometimes a panorama time lapse tells a better story….
We had a very cold, windy Friday evening…. With a surprisingly beautiful, but brief
sunset. Notice the white caps in the bay.... Winds were sustained in the mid 20's gusting to 32. Temps were in the 40's....
Extended forecasts
are hinting at some more instability and a chance of thunderstorms Friday
through the weekend…. Lots of time for
that to change though…
