Sunrise on a stormy day

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 08:19:36 PST

Sunrise at 7 a.m. today, looking west from Liberty High School and shot with a Droid phone.

For about 5 minutes, the sun rising over the southern Sierra and Tehachapi Mountains made it look like the hills were on fire. Several minutes after this shot was taken, the skies darkened, snuffing out the bright orange.

Feel free to share your own weather photos. We know there's some crazy stuff going on outside.

Sign maker needs a spellchecker

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 19:23:38 PST

Mary Jo Riccomini of Bakersfield captured this misspelled sign while out and about. From the looks of it, this sign is on Coffee Road near Truxtun Avenue, so not sure which public agency is responsible for the creative wording.

I guess if there's an upside, maybe using one less letter save us taxpayers a few cents?
