October 25, 2014



Reno, Nevada has bipolar weather! It can be a sunny day while it's snowing or a cloudy day with the temperature over 105 degrees. Those of us who live in Reno know this from experience. I decided to talk about this because as I observed the weather this week I came upon a perfect example.

It was Saturday (October, 25) and I woke up at 8:00 a.m. to a pleasantly good day. The temperature was around 85 degrees, to me that’s regular Saturday temperature. As I walked outside I could feel the heat of the sun bearing down on me, and as I looked up the sky was clear as can be. So I thought to myself it’s a perfect day like any other.

                                    

As my Perfect day went on I noticed the sky started to darken at about 11:00 a.m. and clouds were suddenly appearing. The more the day went on the worse the sky got and the temperature was also dropping rapidly. It dropped to about 65 degrees, which is a huge drop from 85 degrees.

                                                
 At 11:30 a.m. it started to pour rain for about 12 minutes. During that time you could hear the soothing noise of rainfall and feel the weight of the humidity in the cold air against your skin. Just as fast as it started, it ended and the day goes on like nothing happened.

  2. You capture the sky very beautifully. I really enjoy how you talk about the details in the clouds and how you notice the speed in the wind. I suggest to research some of your questions so you can have actual answers. Good job, keep taking pictures.
