Instagram Inspiration: Stormy Weather

Local instagrammers captured last weekend's aggressive weather and beautiful sky

I love the sky. Living in Seattle often gets me down, because the large, compressed buildings—and the incessant gray blanket cloaking the sun—impede my ability to fully see and appreciate nature’s ultimate canvas.

However, this was not the case during last weekend’s storm. Patches in the stormy sky occasionally gave way to distorted, beautiful sunlight, and the violent winds made the waters surrounding our city twist and warp, creating an image almost as enjoyable as the one overhead.

Many instagrammers were able to capture the beauty within the aggressive tempest, allowing those who locked themselves indoors to experience what was occurring outside. If you missed the spurts of beauty from last weekend, or simply want to reflect on it, take a look at these photos from various spots around the Seattle area.
