Skywatch Friday - What a Difference in 24 Hours

We've had quite a variety of weather in the last week. Over the weekend we had some snow and howling winds, leaving up to 2 foot drifts over my driveway. My first Skywatch photo was taken Saturday morning after the snow had stopped but the wind had not, so what you see is blowing snow.
The second shot was taken on Sunday in town, where the temperature hit 78 F (25 C), on Tuesday.
What a difference 24 hours can make!

As with every week around this time, please visit Skywatch Friday to see many skies from around the world.
