Edge of Storm: Entry for Love the Clouds #184

It almost looked like billowing smoke from a serious fire somewhere in town (Petchaburi, Thailand) but it was just the dramatic and surprisingly vertical rear edge of a storm. Along the outside it was full of detail (and the face of an ogre) but to the left its features were blurred by mists of rain. Thunder was near-constant and for a while it threatened us with a heavy soaking but in the end took pity and slid by just throwing a few drops our way. I've never been outside and quite so close to a storm without getting much wetter.

As it rolled north-east, more and more of it was caught by the afternoon sun and it changed into a brighter, much less-threatening mass, which finally signed-off with a lovely double rainbow over our sugarpalm trees.
