Tiny Snowfall

We did get a tiny bit of snow last night.

The sun came out shortly after this photo was taken and most of the snow is now history.  For a while it looked like it was going to be a pretty nice day.

However, some clouds blew through around noon.  It's now sunny, windy and cold.

Disparate Weather

Yesterday it was lovely.  Warm with a light breeze.  Partly sunny. 

As we all know, yesterday was St. Patrick's Day.  For as long as I've lived in the Albuquerque metro area, some unknown person(s) have painted a large shamrock in the middle of the intersection of Southern & Sara in Rio Rancho.  Here's a not-so-good photo showing it.

Today is not nearly as pleasant.  For starters the wind has been blowing like nobody's business.  Because of the wind there's a ton of dust in the air.

Those aren't just possible rain clouds off to the west, that's a whole lot of dust in them thar clouds. 

Around mid-afternoon the sun came out and the winds have died down slightly, but not a lot.

Glad I went to the Botanic Garden yesterday and had planned to stay at home for this afternoon.
