Sky Watch Friday # 31

The new Sky Watch Friday is doing really well. Please check out the site and link in if you wish to participate. There were over 300 people last week with beautiful Sky photos. You can link in from my side bar or at the start of this post.

Our snow has melted and we are having our January thaw in February. The sky was so variable today with rain storms moving through all day.
There were times of blue cloudy skies so it turned out a neat day. This photo was 10 minutes after the one above. The winds were fast above. We have 50 MPH winds today.
Be sure to visit some great shies from around the world.

I think I'll vote for the last one - it was spot on.

Great ever changing false spring skies. It's like that here today, but still have a little snow on the ground.

We have high winds here as well today and the snow is almost gone! Yay! Neat shots of the clouds--amazing that they move so quickly sometimes...

Carletta said...

Love the last shot FG! My kind of clouds.
We had 70 degrees here yesterday and the fierce wind came last evening. The skies have been gorgeous though. Much like your last one but with lots of pink.

What a nice SkyWatch series of the same view during the day! It's amazing how the sky can change so dramatically. My fave would have to be the last one!

Our snow isn't near being melted of yet.

50 MPH is some mighty wind that I never encounter. The last pic was my fave.

pacey said...

That first photo seem to be more interesting, looks like a good shine is coming out.

Lew said...

Great skies! Looks like the wind did not do much damage as it blew through your part of the world.

Nice shots! That is a big change for only 10 minutes. I think my favorite is the last one. :-)

Pietro Brosio said...

I enjoy this sequence of pictures, Fishing Guy. Splendid varied skies, beautiful landscapes.

Everything here is a month or two later as well Tom. Some of the trees which should have been in bloom in Nov/Dec only gor there flowers in Jan. It has been a messed up season for us by all standards. Lovely shots you posted.

Reader Wil said...

I like all your photos especially when they are enlarged. The bottom one, though is my favourite with the bare trees outlined against the sky. Have a great weekend!

spookydragonfly said...

Yesterday, the skies surely put on a great show with the strong wind gusts! Love the silhouettes of the trees against the clouds!

Don Wood said...

It's nice to see three shots from the same point of view, so we can see the sky change within minutes.
Have a good weekend.

Naturegirl said...

Great capture of the changing sky! Here in my world the snow has melted and we have nothing but rain wind and bleak grey skies! Love in air though!

I love days when the skies are changing like that. I don't want 50 mile an hour winds though!
Gorgeous sky pictures!

Better late than never as they say Tom. I am glad it has thawed and the animals will not have such a tough time finding food now.
