Last week it snowed and we've had snow on the mountain to the West of us, towards Mount Charleston/Red Rock area.
Snow is on the mountains to the North of us too.
I took pictures of the mountains as I walked the dog down the street.
Sunset on Monday.
Sunset on Saturday. It looked pink and purple.
Sunrise on Wednesday. There were so many clouds you could barely see the sun.
On Tuesday a storm rolled in and rained off and on all day.
I saw the storm clouds coming our way and started snapping pictures.
As it got closer and darker.
The clouds were just about over my apartment complex at this point and the wind really picked up. We had 50 mph gusts all day and into Wednesday.
I made sure to take Falcor out right before it got here because he doesn't like getting his dainty little feet wet. lol
It rained off and on all night.
That's rolling in, all right!
ReplyDeleteToo bad you can't get to an open spot and a clear view of the mountains. They look beautiful with the snow on them.
Snow in Las Vegas? I've been seeing posts about the snow from bloggers on the east coast, but I never thought it would hit your area.
ReplyDeleteThe cloud in the "Sunset on Monday" picture is so dark and sharply bounded, it looks like a huge alien flying saucer is passing overhead.
SNOW???? that is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI don't blame him about not wanting to get his feet wet! What beautiful skies. I really like the one where you had a giant cloud cover on one half of the sky and blue sky on the other. Woke up this morning to another inch of snow here. Only had 3 in on monday.
ReplyDeleteThat Monday sunset is so dramatic!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos Mary. I love that 2nd photo with the trees and cars lined up and snow on the hills :-D
ReplyDeleteI'm with Falcor, though my feet are far from dainty!
ReplyDeleteI love to see snow on mountains.
ReplyDeleteI like the sun rise and set photos.
ReplyDeleteWhew! Those clouds are glorious, especially the sunset.
ReplyDeleteYour amazing clouds out there always look like they are from a movie production.
ReplyDeleteLovely ones, especially those sunsets - dramatic the first, nicely sprinkled with colours the second, so black it doesn't even look like sunset the third!
ReplyDelete"I made sure to take Falcor out right before it got here because he doesn't like getting his dainty little feet wet. lol"
Aw, the little prince. LOL.
Lovely photos
ReplyDeleteOminous clouds. Kind of weird to see snow and palm trees on the same picture.
ReplyDeleteWow Mary! These photos are amazing. The sunset with that dark cloud. Brilliant.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous mountains and a gorgeous sunset. Is there anything on that mountain or is it just a wild nature and wasteland?
ReplyDeleteVery dramatic skies. Did you actually get snow? Wow.
ReplyDeleteFantastic sky photos, very nice!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful series, Mary.
ReplyDeleteSunlight and dark clouds always makes for such dramatic pics. :D
ReplyDeleteYou captured a lot of interesting clouds this week. Enjoyed them all. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteWe got quite a bit of snow last week, too. You had 50 mph winds?! Wow! Yes, my cats hate the rain like Falcor, haha!
ReplyDeleteYou have the best skies!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful snow on the mountains and those were exquisite sunsets. Really cool how you did a time-lapse set of pictures of the approaching storm.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. Our almost two feet of snow is quickly turning to slush. This has been a tough winter and I'm so eager to see spring.
