Clouds happening

The rain has passed (over 12 hours of it seemed quite long enough, left 2 inches here!) Clouds on left are the trailing edge of the past storms, as new weather approaches from the southwest over the ridgeline.

And there are some cute little remaining fluffs in the lowest part of the valley along the Swannanoa River...while a bank of maybe one more rain cloud waits coming over the mountains to the south.

But the sun is shining so nicely on the west view of these clouds, they aren't going to stand much chance to rain again.

I feel so much better when the sun comes back (but I'm grateful for the rain too!
