Every Changing Sky

Last week brought a blast of winter weather our way.

Coming home last Wednesday from work I was admiring the pretty scene ahead of me while driving north on the highway home.

I turned onto our road, pulled over and got out to take some photos.

 

This is looking northeast from my vantage point on our road.

 This shot is looking directly north from my vantage point.

The mountains were lined with snow and the sky was a pretty light blue and gray.

 On the way home, I happened to notice a man off on the side of the road taking photos but I couldn't figure out what he was taking photos of. Well, when I turned around from taking my own shots this is what I saw....and most likely what the man on the side of the road was capturing with his camera.

These wicked looking clouds were forming directly behind me toward the southeast.

There was an angry squall moving over town at that moment and the clouds were ominous looking!

So I had two views to capture in the photos and they were literally taking place side by side as I snapped away!

 

There is a saying we like to use here in Nevada, "if you don't like the weather, wait five minutes and it will change." This is certainly proof of that!
