Oakland Weather

This is odd weather for September 19th. We might get rained on tonight. Unfortunately, what I had hoped for - a huge thunderhead lit by the setting sun - didn't quite materialize. At least not from this vantage point. Oh well, the pano quite accurately captures what it looked like.

Look closely. How many vehicles do you see on the freeway moving left-to-right? I see one bus and three cars.

Looks like Cindy got it right! (Excluding the almost invisible cars on the far left of the panorama that Antonio just pointed out to me.) Here's why "four cars and one bus" is the answer I was looking for. You see the same three cars three times in the composite!

I see 13 cars. Look harder.

Actually, I see one bus preceded by 8 cars traveling from left to right. One of these cars appears to be stalled.

4 cars, 1 bus - what's so special?

Greats photographs - Can you put this photo on a map so I can understand where it was taken?

That's great about the cars, but can you find Waldo?

Can you get a read on the license plate of the lead vehicle. It appears to be speeding.

Sure, Todd. The panorama was taken from the top of this building. <-- Google Placemark.

The bus is a UPS truck. ;-)
