What's technically going on.

Town Festival and Arctic Rainbow

 We spent most of the day in the lab staging weather stations today.  That was fine with me because the temperature dropped about 10 degrees from yesterday, and the wind is blowing.  At lunch we stopped by the city park and checked out the 4th of July Festival.  The city park is pretty much a gravel lot.  There were food booths, face painting for kids, and some games.  We walked around for a few minutes but quickly got back in our truck to escape the chilling wind.

We went out again after dinner and got to see an Arctic rainbow.  A fog moved in from the ocean, and the sun hitting that fog created the rainbow.
