This glorious sunset was yesterday. Looks like a pyramid to the sun. Today, after a sunny morning, the rains moved in and right now, it is completely socked-in. I know there are mountains out there, but they are totally hidden by heavy clouds and rain, glorious rain. This has been a very dry "rainy" season thus far and this will really help. According to the weather maps, the rain is widespread and there are certain areas that really need it. We drove the Ruta Mezcal yesterday, from Mitla to Ocotlan, and parts looked like they had received none thus far. It looked like the "dry" season just never ended. Every drop is a blessing!

Wonderful news for Oaxaca! And your photo of the sunset is indeed glorious. There's an old mariner's saying "Red sky at night, sailors delight; red sky at morning, sailors take warning" i.e. red sunset foretelling clear weather, but a red dawn storms coming. Maybe Oaxaca is so magical that that's turned upside down. When I lived in New York City, we considered that a fabulous sunset indicated more pollution than usual over New Jersey.
