Our weather for this month has consisted of rain and wind, rain and wind, and even more rain and wind. Occasionally we see a “sucker hole” like the one above. A sucker hole for those who are not familiar with that weather forecasting term is a patch of blue sky surrounded by dark clouds. That optimistic patch of sky “sucks” us into thinking the weather is getting better–hence a sucker hole! Every time I see one of these patches of sky lately, I am hopeful the weather is turning for the better. What a sucker I am!
