Stormy Sunrise over Charlesgate Yacht Club and Charles River with West End Boston Skyline, Cambridge Massachusetts USA

The forecast looked good so I headed out super early this morning. Figured I would hit Charlesgate Yacht Club since it’s been awhile. Everything looked promising when I arrived but super dark storm clouds started moving through headed out to the ocean. I thought it was all over, but out of stubbornness I figured I would wait it out and see if I could get any color at some point past sunrise. About 40 mins after sunrise the sun was able to hit the clouds, which started breaking, and they caught some great color.
