Golly gosh, Sue, I know I have a lot to say about the predictable unpredictability of the British weather, but goodness me, this is something else! Absolutely fascinating - the zephyr, the lenticular clouds, rainbows, dust devils, wildfires, tornados, floods - indeed, as you've said, 'anything can happen'!
We teach each other, don't we. I've been having far too much fun with "flash" stories. Also, revisiting Santa Cruz through your writings has been fascinating.
He wrote some excellent if hilarious stuff about the Great Basin. I have it on Audible.
One of the best stories in the book is about an old man who, if he was just the right amount drunk, would go off on a rambling tale that is genuinely lol.
This is the first I've ever heard of the word zephyr and I have to admit it was an interesting account. The photos were incredible, thank you for sharing :)

You teach me so many things, Sue. Thank you. Mother Nature Rules!

Mark Twain wrote about the Carson City afternoon Zephyrs in Roughing It. It’s worth a read.
I have that on my kindle, so I'll dig it out for another read. Got halfway through it first time. Thanks, Switter.

Thank you for your comment. I hope you'll explore more Ring Around the Basin in the Archives.
Wow! What an incredible place to live! With beauty and rage, Mother Nature shows us her amazing spectrum of power.
