Romantic Weather


This glorious and awe-inspiring weather today is the kind of presence of Nature that inspired the original Romantic sensibility. I hope that you are enjoying it as much as I am.

The picture here is the AQ from the fourth floor west side staircase, taken today, and reminded me of Shelley's poem:

The fitful alternations of the rain,
When the chill wind, languid as with pain
Of its own heavy moisture, here and there
Drives through the gray and beamless atmosphere.
