Storm's Coming!

This is the Rosslyn, Virginia, skyline as viewed from Roosevelt Island in the Potomac River just as a storm was arriving this evening. I ran for my car after this shot. The rain started moments later.

That is a fairly large city sort of near me (I am in Atlanta) and I have not heard of it? very nice place! Great pic of it!

@tosee Thanks, Tom! Not at all, fortunately. I made it to my car, which is one of those cars on the far shore in this photo, before it let loose. I ran for it!

@deu49097 Thanks, Dawn.

[Khawbecker]

@pdulis Exactly! Thanks, Peter.

@espyetta Thanks, MaryBeth. This is just across the river from D.C. No one pays attention to it because D.C. gets all of the attention. :)

@congaree Yes, the skies were threatening and I duly felt threatened and ran to my car after this photo. :) I hope you get some rain in Charleston too!
