Santa Barbara Storm

It must be a bit disappointing to plan a trip to Santa Barbara and then get here for a weekend like this one is likely to be. Storm(s) coming in just in time for a gray Christmas (although the more optimistic forecasts say it will not rain on Christmas), and it will be gloomy around here. A small bit of wonder could have been had if one were up at sunrise or shortly after this morning though. The leading edge of the storm invaded a crystal clear sky and the clouds combined with the early sunlight made for stunning views. I was on the Wharf at 7:00 and here is some of what I saw.
