The morning started out dark but cool, in the high 40’s. the dawn sky quickly emerged. some stratus clouds over the Sierras, the clearing was bright red, with gray clouds, followed by deep blue sky and the half moon was visible at 11 o’clock in the sky, and some cirrus clouds in the Western sky. As the morning progressed the clearing over the Sierras turned to seafoam green. The top of the clouds were tinted with Peach color. before the sun emerged the clouds over the Sierras turned to orange gold and the sun ray radiated outwards on it path.
