Spring Skies 2013

After 2+ years of drought, the weather pattern has changed (maybe only temporary). Cooler weather has lingered longer than usual and storms have become more frequent. My city has recently endured a devastating tornado, but has received much needed rainfall. As a testament to the severity of the drought, even with 10+ inches of rain recently, our lake (main water supply) still remains low and on the farm, stock tanks are still lower than one would expect. There is a creek running through the farm which has yet to have running water. I guess the ground has been so dry, it is soaking it all in. I am definitely thankful for the rain. I have enjoyed the variety of clouds and storms to photograph. This year's weather has led one to keep an eye on the sky with anticipation of something good to capture with the camera, but I know the normal dry hot summer will be upon us soon.
