Virga sounds like rather a lot of other words that would have this post sent to my spam folder, but it didn't. Virga can be such a tease as it can show up as decent rain on rain radar.
What spectacular colour in that cloud! And the rain doesn't reach the ground. Spit and curse. On reflection maybe the good people of Tocumwal would not stoop to such crass behaviour... Alphie

ReplyDeleteSad. And thank you. I never knew that the name for that 'non-rain' was Virga.

Pity I am sure you need the rain!! Cheers Diane
ReplyDeleteIt makes a frustratingly beautiful sky.
ReplyDeleteI have heard of Virga.We get it here as well, during very dry spells.
ReplyDeleteWell, it sure is pretty. But I know you need the rain, so I'm sorry it didn't produce moisture for you.
