Dawn of this mild winter’s morning offered a brilliantly illuminated southern view. Light-blocking clouds to the east and north kept the best colors in a fairly short time window and spread from west (opposite the sunrise) through southeast, somewhat at right angles to the rising sun itself. Folks awake this early in southern Oklahoma surely had a sky-wide spectacular to witness; and our view was reasonably amazing too.
