Opening Day

Sunrise as gratuity. Thunderstorms have been forecast — though given the youth of the season, "alleged" is more fitting. A line is quickly approaching, some cloudtops rising above 35,000 feet. Earnest cumulonimbus may arrive this afternoon; if the sky doesn't consolidate into a featureless grey, plumes should be visible. My camera remains at my side.

FEATURELESS GREY: And we've some snow in store for us. Can't win them all.
