barking sundogs
The sundogs came out to play today for the first time this season. They’ve been around in the barest of hints previously but today, in grand fashion, they danced rainbows around the sun. There was a full circle, outward arcs, a second circle, a false sunset… Imagine a prism between you and the sun, cycle the reflections around, hold out your fist to block the hell star from blinding you, and marvel at the color in the sky.
Amazing what a few blowing ice crystals can do for your day!
Too bad the tradeoff is -45 F windchill…
