The Results Are In
Posted by Will under happenings, nature, weather
First the good news: I’m reeeeeeally pleased with how todays clouds timelapse came out. And that means only more good news: that my attempt to capture the rich cumulo-nimbus display from our Silver Lake rooftop melted neither the computer nor the camera — amazingly, because it was mighty dang hot up there.
But I won’t waste anymore time other than to say go look at what I done caught, or check out the embedded YouTube version below. Purty cool, eh?

Awesome! The camera looked a little shakey about half way in, when the clouds were getting ominous. But, just as you said, just as quickly as the clouds rolled in, they rolled right back out without fanfare — and the sky turned beautiful once again.

Thanks ECG. Yeah, I had a towel draped over the cam to screen it a bit and I think the breezes might have been enough a couple times to push against the fabric and give it a nudge.

Thunderpants! Love this. I wonder if the darker, browner cloud seen later is more smoke from fires…

I was wondering the same thing Miles. Fires did break out in that region yesterday, one in Lancaster at 5 p.m and another in Santa Clarita (don’t know the time). The Santa Clarita one is still being fought, and the Lancaster one burned 100 acres before being contained so those dark brown clouds near the end could very well be smoke from either blaze. Or

WOWIEAWEXOMEFUGGINAMAZING!!!!
Seriously, all it needs is the Philip Glass soundrack music.

Thought I read of something burning in the Angeles Nat’l Forrest, too…or maybe that was the Santa Clarita blaze. Not looking forward to when the Santa Anas start whipping things up in the fall. Clear that brush now, folks! Oy.

That was so-o-o cool, I loved the movement of the Italian cypress and palm tree too.
