Hurricane Emily and the moon
Hurricane Irene from Space
I already went shopping yesterday but wanted to get some more water and possibly a flashlight so I walked to a CVS near my place.
Well… Basically, this is what I saw. I sorta saw it coming so didn’t get too shocked, but it’s still quite amazing to see shelves emptied like this.

Keeping an eye on Irene using the Living Earth HD app…
The art: Winslow Homer, Hurricane, Bahamas, 1898.
The news: Hurricane Irene is on the way.
The source: Collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. An after-the-hurricane Homer watercolor is at the Art Institute of Chicago.
Note: Before there was The Weather Channel, there was art. Throughout the day 3rd of May will post examples of artists thrilling to big, bad, threatening storms.
Sooooo the bread aisle is cleared out…damn. hurricane issues.
