  1. From 5-29, some mid-afternoon alto-cumulus. Taken with the 24-70mm at 24mm...
  2. From 5-28, the red flash. Taken with the 100mm (cropped in camera)...
  3. Must be nice. Today the tippy bucket only moved once. So I go from 1.00" Sunday to 0.01" on Monday. The only good news is that being under the upper low has kept the smoke away for a day or two.
  4. From 5-27. Had little but a rather vivid red flash. Taken with the 24-70mm at 70mm... Cheers!
  5. From 5-22. Pre-sunset. taken with the 100mm, cropped in camera... Close to local sunset. Taken with the 100mm, cropped in camera... Post sunset as all the smoke interferes with the colors. Taken with the 100mm...
  6. From 5-16. Looking west at the pre-sunset. Taken with the 24-70mm at 70mm... Some of the orange in the virga, looking southwest post-sunset. Taken with the 24-70mm at 55mm... The red made an appearance as I was walking back to the car. Taken with the 24-70mm at 55mm...
  7. From 5-15. A rainy day allowed me time to process a few images. Looking north as the red slide by the area. Taken with the 24-70mm at 55mm...
  8. A nice 8 hour soaking here. Ended up with exactly 1.00" in my tippy bucket. That does not happen often, perfectly rounded out numbers. I could use another day just like this one, tomorrow. But that is not going to happen.
  9. The AQI got above 150 here today. Not like the madness of the 300's in the Northeast but still in the unhealthy range here. Looked horrible, smelled horrible and made me breath funny outside today.
  10. Same here also. Someone bump the record player. It is stuck and keeps playing the same three notes over and over again.
  11. Agree. Messes up my cloud and sunset images. And is unhealthy for my lungs.
  12. Thanks. I will investigate this further.
  13. hardypalmguy, can you attempt to identify this palm for me? This is a single voluntary palm on my property. I did not plant the thing. It showed up late last year. I assume from a bird or squirrel or some other mode of transport. It looked pretty sad during the cool damp early spring but now that it has gotten quite dry it is looking quite healthy while everything else wilts.
  14. An excerpt from KIND's HWO WWA Summary by Location for 40.05N 86.47W with INZ037/INC011/INZ037 emphasis Air Quality Alert (weather.gov)
  15. Today the high was one degree cooler at KIND with 85 compared to yesterdays 86. But the dews were in the upper 40's yesterday while in the low 60's today. Made it feel a lot warmer outside in the Sun.
  16. 5-12 was a sparse evening but had all the colors post sunset. The yellows. Taken with the 24-70mm at 24mm... The oranges. Taken with the 24-70mm at 34mm... And the reds. Taken with the 16-35mm at 16mm...
  17. 5-8 was a day of generic clouds. Looking north pre-sunset. Taken with the 24-70mm at 39mm... Closer to sunset and some low topped build-up looking southwest. Taken with the 100mm (cropped in camera)...
  18. 5-5 had plenty of clouds to work with. Pre-sunset has some see-thru stratus. Taken with the 24-70mm at 24mm... Post sunset had a jumble of clouds. Taken with the 100mm...
  19. The. Corn. Needs. Rain. This shows that the early corn got rain on it and looks at least somewhat decent. The late corn though has not got anything and needs it bad. Beans in the same pot also.
  20. 84 at KIND just so you know what you are missing. LOL at a 40 degree difference.
  21. From 4-26. Taken with the 24-70mm at 44mm...
  22. From 4-24. I am only way, way behind. Taken with the 100mm...
  23. Even though I was in an area with less smoke today, it was still visible, especially post sunset. Here is the Moon with the smoke. And while there are some clouds here, 90% of what you see is smoke...
  24. Crepuscular rays. In this instance it is from clouds that are under the horizon well off in the distance.
  25. The smoke made it to 40N. today. Chalky white skies all day. At sunset you could see the smoke better looking at the horizon and through the most atmosphere hence more smoke. The nearest clouds in this direction was the Iowa/Nebraska border and you can not see them from this location. This is all smoke.
