Local Kenny Hamilton captured these cirrocumulus clouds in a sunset over an Oregon Hill town home a few days ago, before the sleet and cold that is with us today.

Oregon Hill Blitz Cleanup
From RVA Clean Sweep:
Arbor Earth is partnering with RVA Clean Sweep and Keep Virginia Beautiful (KVB)! They will be hosting an Oregon Hill Cleanup on the same day as Shiver in the River.
More information about Arbor Earth: https://www.arborearth.org/
Please join them on the corner of Idlewood & Laurel (at 10 am) for however long you can. All supplies will be provided.
Please Pick Up After Your Dogs
Please pick up after your dogs. All of this gets swept into the river and no one, fish included, wants to swim with all this. Pet wastes are the major source point of pollution on this part of the James River.

“How The Welsh Changed The World”
