Dark Clouds, No Rain

 

On Sunday evening I noticed that some dark skies were starting to form over the mountains to the north of me.



I zoomed in closer and saw some very heavy clouds that looked like they might open up at any moment.

The skies to the northeast over the complex were getting very dark.

All of this dramatic build up and not one drop of rain fell.  I heard that areas north of Phoenix got some rain but no such luck for us city folks.

My weather app says we have a stronger chance for some rain later this week.  My fingers are crossed!

Posted this AM, the rains came Monday night and it was a good solid rain!  Makes me happy.

I love skies like that, we have the same thing happen here too, the anticipation of a storm that never arrives.

I was there the first of June one year, rain in the desert is an interesting experience.
