Thursday Evening Walmart Rainbow Brightens My Drippy Texas Sky


Exiting Walmart this Thursday evening, one week before 2025's Thanksgiving Thursday, I saw something I've not seen in a long long long time.

A rainbow.

Well, part of a rainbow. Most of the bow was blocked by clouds.

I was not the only one who took to photo documenting this rare event which does not often happen in this overly dry location on the planet.

But, starting yesterday evening, rain has been falling off and on. But never at the flash flood downpour mode which had been predicted. There have been a few lightning strikes and thunder booms, but not of the strong thunderstorm sort which had also been predicted.

Even though we are nearing the end of November, I have had my interior climate control set back to air-conditioning mode for several days now, after our short bout of cold temperatures abated. Currently the outer world is being chilled to a relatively cool 68 degrees. 

I suspect by morning I will be switching my interior climate control from air-conditioning, back to heat mode.
