Sky Watch Friday - Rita's reminder
Being from Kansas, hurricanes are one weather phenomenon we don't have to reckon with. These beautiful orange clouds were the remnants of the disaster that Hurricane Rita wreaked on Texas and Louisiana in September of 2005. Though her torrential rains and terrible tantrums remained far south of us, we were reminded of her fury by this brilliant display of color. It wrapped nearly all the way 
around us in a lovely cloak of tangerine, and was one of the most breath-taking sights I've ever seen from my own back yard.

Some women, like Rita, are beautiful when they have a tantrum. Which is all well and good until they start breaking stuff. These are magnificent photos. God bless.
Like you've mentioned, those are really breath-taking shots of the skies. Have a good weekend ahead!

They are really beautiful! Last year when south Georgia had the forest fires we had the most beautiful red sunsets.
