With average January temps in the balmy 70s, it’s hard to think of summers here being less than year-round; especially when you ring in New Year’s Eve (and Day!) lying on the beach! But while the seasons may be indistinct, the same cannot be said of our sunsets ➡ no time of year are they more dramatic than now, when heat and humidity are at their highest! Take a look:
I snapped this sequence as we crossed the Loy Bridge from the island to the mainland, in very early May. It was extremely hot and muggy, the bank of clouds a threatening army on a west to east advance. These pictures show the passing jet stream disturbance, a battlezone between clouds above and the clear, narrow strip below along the horizon.
From May through September, sunsets like this are a near-to-daily event in Vero Beach. Sometimes the clouds bring rain, other times they don’t…but they always reflect beauty in the setting of a summer sun
Until next time……
🙂

I had to Google Vero Beach because I knew I had been there but couldn’t remember where it was. How could I forget? Age……………….
🙂 That cracked me up! Hopefully your Vero visit wasn’t last week/month!! ? Then you might need to worry!
BTW, i’ve never gotten a comment from a cat! especially one that looks like ours 😉 !
Zoey the Cool Cat is very talktative.
Was in Vero Beach back in 1994 when I was working out of Tampa building out cell sites for cell phones. My territory was the Tampa-Jacksonville-Miami triangle.
Perfect, I never get tired of sunset or photos of them 🙂

I was going to wish you a spectacular summer, but it looks like it’s a sure thing.
🙂 It’s been a hot month, that’s one sure thing!
Yesterday we broke a record high temp for May 30 (93degrees)….which ushered in some serious t-storms…..that dumped over an inch of rain in a few hours…more of the same expected today!
thanks for the comment, and I’ve got no doubt your summer in the city will be FUN!!
We experienced some of that in New York City.
Such mystical skies… 🙂
It was a special night! Thank you for the comment! 🙂
Lovely skies!
Certainly was pretty that night….lately we’ve had a TON of overcast evenings (days, too, actually 😦 ) so I’m glad I was able to catch it in the lens!
Can’t go wrong with sunsets- I love em.
Me, too! Sometimes they can be quite dramatic around here! Thank you for coming by! 🙂
