Calm Before the Storm?

Update: Weather forecasters are back-peddling quite a bit now on their weather predictions. The Oregonian itself played this thing up as a fairly noteworthy weather event. Now they're saying it will maybe be a bit of snow, but not nearly so much. Online comment boards are alight, Facebook friends are poking fun. I'm more entertained that some are deeming this "Snoverreaction 2011" Haha.



There's a large winter storm headed this way from up north. It was supposed to hit this afternoon, but has stalled in the SW Washington area. Given this, the weather this afternoon has been gorgeous, so I figured I'd take a few minutes to take an HDR photo of the sky to illustrate the calm before the, well, supposed storm. Snow pictures tomorrow maybe?

Tech note: this is actually a composite of 12 different shots blended together as an HDR image. A tad overkill I know, given that the light was great and very even anyway. Still I want to take the opportunity to get the practice in.
