Really, really lovely cumulonimbus action tonight! I just happened to have my drone in the car and got some solid shots of DT Seattle/Lake Washington/Mercer Island/Bellevue looking north from Skyway. Alas, the focal length of the lens doesn't do the vertical height justice and my WB was off rendering it into semi-gross HDR territory, but still... fun looking weather!

Average high for remainder of May 2024 required to average 70 F for the high: 62.00 F
I believe Trump will be convicted. And it’s a travesty. It will be overturned on appeal but the damage of this horrific precedent may well end our Republic.
