Emotional Weather Report

The wind that blew through DC yesterday was really strong. The day started out all sunny and warm, and then the sunlight became even brighter against the backdrop of dark clouds that came out of nowhere. A few minutes later, a full-on sleet storm swept through Capitol Hill. The wind blew chunks of frozen rain against windows with worrying strength. It kept blowing and blowing, though, and so the clouds eventually went by, lingering on the horizon. The sun staged another of those ridiculous pink and gold affairs that are just disarmingly beautiful, like those 80s ballads you hate to admit move you to tears when they come on the radio. The evening was much colder that the morning, but the sunset would not be as pretty without the clouds.

Happy new year, everyone.
