I think it's going the wrong way, up rather than eastward. :lol:

I was facing west, so it was coming right at me. :lol:

:lol: So when you had (or when you still have) your head down, you were looking east? :lol:

looks like one of those streamers you see flapping in the breeze around a used car dealership...

I am impressed. Had a big low pressure system over my house once and that "L" in the sky was just awesome to see!

OWCH! Stop flapping the breeze!! :lol:

I looked up in the sky and saw a bow echo, once,
just before the stright-line winds hit.... :A:

Steve, was the "L" inverted so it would appear correct to the satellites?

How did you know, Ed? Of course it was inverted, but then all I had to do is change positions and it was readable from the surface too!

Steve, that must be the key to ColdFront's question above. That got me all turned around so I didn't know which way was up. "Highs" would be easy, though.

And Breeze, that bow echo must have been impressive. You just have to know what to look for.

I used to have the N in Long Beach (California) right over my apartment before I moved. Now I have a big black space, and the edge of a green line for an interstate that's about 3/4 of a mile north of me. :P
