Day 315 (1/2) - Sunset Rain

Today I saw a beautiful unexpected sunset. Why? It was pouring rain, high winds, snow clouds were moving in (the dark ones), and pretty much cloudy and foggy all day. Temps were up in the 4C/38F in February. This is odd because in less than 12 hours, the temp dropped to -12C/8F, with -22C/-10F windchills.

I was watching the rain trying to melt the snow, when I saw an orange glow on the windowsill. I ran to the porch to see what was going on. I saw the sun breaking through the snow clouds.

As I was about to tell Barb to come and check out the sunset, I heard the rain pounding the window. That's when I saw the sunset through the rain soaked window.

Here's what the sunset looked like from the porch - something you don't see that often, the sun splitting in half by the storm clouds. here
