Fire In The Sky

February 26, 2009

Several large control burns around the area have led to lots of smoke in North Escambia the past few days, creating a unique sunset Wednesday evening.

Winds will be light from the southeast today, allowing the smoke to settle in some areas. It will be warm through Saturday, with afternoon high expected to top out around 75.

Rain creeps in to the forecast by Friday night at 30 percent. The rain chance jumps to 60 percent for Saturday and continues at 40 percent for Saturday night.

By Sunday, the rain will clear and it will be cooler with a high of just 58 degrees.

Pictured above: Drifting smoke led to an interesting sunset Wednesday afternoon. The sun can be seen through a drifting cloud of smoke. NorthEscambia.com photo, click to enlarge.

    This picture alone say’s why God cannot be left out of anything anywhere ever. He is the painter. He is the ultimate artist. Whether our government acknowledges it or not, his gift this afternoon was appreciated.
