Eerie light, of an uncommon shade between auburn and sepia that seems more Martian than earthly, occupied a diffusely cloudy section of distant Davis Mountains sky behind a weakening supercell. The storm’s leftover outflow rose onto the mountains and condensed to scud, reflecting brighter, whiter light originating farther aloft, and adding to the somber softness of the scene. Far west Texas on a late May afternoon ought to look much brighter, harsher, starker, and drier, but not that day, not in that wondrously cool and moist hour.
