Tuesday 12 July Burrawang


I am posting a day late but this image looking South ASouth West was  taken at 3PM on Tuesday afternoon. The pattern looks more like wind swept desert sand than clouds. After last weeks gale force winds we have had regular westerly winds today. The wind chill factor is high and even when the temperatures reach 8 or 10 degrees C it is still painful to be outside with uncovered hands.
The soil is also very dry here and yesterday I spent about 30 minutes watering and returned inside with stinging hands that took ages to thaw.
Heavy frosts over night are slow to thaw and the fire is burning 24 hrs a day.
Jonquils and King Alfred daffodils are beginning to appear to cheer up the garden.

It's quite beautiful, the trail of air currents or wind.
