Richmond Beach like everywhere else felt the assault of Tuesday's winter storm. I found the contrasts of the day interesting from a photographic perspective. The morning and early afternoon were dark, grey and very windy with roaring micro bursts that made heavy evergreens sound like a freight train approaching the Saltwater Park even when I was blocks away from the bluff. Then shortly before 4pm there was a break of silence before the temperature dropped and the rain began again when the sky opened just long enough for me to take a breath and realize how beautiful it was.
Wayne Pridemore was out in the weather too, and captured these scenes.

Waves were crashing all along the shores.
This bus rider was happy for a roof over his head!

The water was too much for the storm drains, which overfilled in a number of spots, and provided a few surprises for drivers.

Ripples and eddies
Lee Lageschulte caught a photo of the five minutes of sun, just before it went down.
