What a Day!
Such an unbelievable sight in Sydney (and most of the state) today as a wild storm passed through bringing massive amounts of red desert right into the city.
Waking up, I noticed that the window blinds was surrounded by a red glow. This revealed a stunning hazy red landscape. It was an amazing thing to see. I said to my little son, Noah, that it looks like we were in a giant glass of Berocca. Photos (at least on my camera) did the sight no justice, so I’ve had to pinch a photo from elsewhere to represent the day.
It’s now 1pm, and most of the redness of the sky has left us, leaving a much greyer haze in it’s wake.
The city is now shadows in a thin layer of red dust.
What truly amazes me is that the red sky was due to the windstorm picking up, and carrying dust from the red centre, that is, the Australian desert. Never before have I seen such a thing.
