Episode 126: Fall Rains Beneath the Green Night Sky

Recorded on October 26, 2025, on the sleeping porch, this is the sound of an all-night rain moving in under a bruised, green-tinged sky. The eerie color comes from sunlight interacting with water droplets and ice particles within the storm clouds—reddish-yellow light scattering through moisture and refracting off hailstones. This rare phenomenon is most vivid near sunset, when the low angle of the sun enhances the storm’s strange, luminous hue. Listeners will hear the steady fall of rain onto the metal roof and rain drum and Sounds Southern Extended listeners will enjoy over 75 minutes of the soothing rain plus the soft squeak of the hinges as I close the porch door for the night.
