New York City, April 18, 2013
★★ The sky was solidly overcast, but the glare made it hard to look at. The wind was pushing darkness and unpleasantness into the middle of the day. It must have rained, while other things were going on; the door out of the office led to wet ground and chilly air. A dropped scarf lay in the street. The sidewalks smelled but the water in the gutters had been rinsed cleaner. Gratuitous light-wasting decorations on top of an apartment building left twin spots on the low clouds in the night.
