After a successful chase day involving three quite different supercells, the third one merged with newer, nearby convection to yield a messy storm complex. On that outflow formed a good deal of fractocumulus scud, and whose backside gave us this fine finish to the day. Much like a brilliant sunset earlier the same year, a field of low clouds and scud parted just in time to reveal the source of the increasingly orange glow above. Though I’ve seen hundreds of sunsets to cap off chase days, every one is unique and deeply appreciated in the moment, as a blessing, as a reminder to take nothing for granted, and as a sign of hope to witness another.
