Field guide No. 701
Rain knots over a barren desert
The forecast got tangled.
Over a dry, cracked desert three columns of rain come down from a dark cloud, each one tied in a neat knot halfway to the ground. The desert is still waiting for most of it.
Field noteRainfall tied like rope, three times over. The water below the knots gets through all the same.
Also possible, also breaking physics
Liquid cat through the mail slotCats are said to be liquid. This one has proved it through a letterbox.
Snow dissolving into rose petalsSnow can be replaced by petals in the air. Winter has not signed the handover.
Hare with groundbound earsEars lie flat behind the hare like dragged ropes; it is listening to the field, and the field is listening back.
Tumbleweed through the concrete wallsDry brush slipping through poured concrete without a crack breaks physics, but the weed stays a weed.
