Stars Coming Out At Moon Rise and an Atmospheric River Coming Our Way.....

Last night, just as the moon rose, the clouds parted to reveal the stars....  It made for a beautiful sky...

It is interesting to watch in time lapse....

And then for the bad news from that fun squasher Cliff Mass....  It looks like we have a major atmospheric river coming this weekend.  Yuck....

A Strong Atmospheric River Should Hit the Northwest Next Weekend

Fog Isn't Always Ugly....

Whenever we are socked in with fog, I watch it as closely as I can when I am home and have access to my drone.  Above the fog photography at the right time can be beautiful....  It is illegal to fly a drone in the fog, so timing is everything.  It has to be clear overhead and foggy around us.  I got lucky this afternoon and put the drone up the minute it cleared overhead....  This fog was beautiful as it cleared over Hood Canal....

Here is a video of the fog as it was clearing.

A Pink Sky Sunrise....

Another incredible sunrise this morning.  The whole sky was pink.....

Here is a spin showing Admiralty Inlet, Hood Canal, Mt. Baker and Puget Sound...

A Pretty Amazing Sunrise....

This morning produced an incredible sunrise that I wasn't expecting.  Watch to the end to see an interesting double rainbow.....

And from ground level, this is what it looked like from 3 cams....
