Description
This was Day Two of the Paint the Town Kingston event of the Annual International Plein Air Painters (IPAP) Paint Out affiliated with the Kingston School of Art 2019.
Work had already started on Gore Road to accommodate a third bridge to cross the Cataraqui River along with the La Salle Causeway and the Macdonald Cartier Freeway commonly known as The 401. This view was looking up current and across the northwesterly streets of turbulent stratocumulus. There would be a two lane bridge across this scene in a few years.
Some patches of blue were appearing between the increasingly cumuliform cloud. The daytime heating was transforming the clouds in the unstable air mass. The official probability of precipitation for the day was 43 percent. We always rounded the POP do the nearest 10 percent when I was forecasting. These cumulus clouds could only bring a few drops and they were certainly not going to get in the way of me painting. Surprisingly given the northwesterly wind, a cold front was poised to the northwest which would arrive late in the afternoon with thunderstorms. Typically the winds have a southerly component in the warm sector of a weather system.
