A change in the air

 

Several significant squalls passed by Bodega Head today.  Some were visible on the western horizon, others darkened the sky to the east.  

 

There was a noticeable drop in air temperature after the passage of one of these squalls around noontime.  I checked the temperature readings.  It was 54.2°F (12.4°C) at 12 p.m.  Not long after, it was 47.3°F (8.5°C) — a drop of  7 degrees within minutes!  (My hands told me something had changed.)

 

It looks like it rained about 1 inch early this morning, and only a very small amount (0.03 inches) during the day today.  Let's hope for some more showers before we round the corner into May.
