The Hand of God

Sunday, June 22, 1986Estadio Azteca, Mexico City

storms around 5pm65°F

Grey and damp before dawn, the air near 55°F and the cloud down on the rooftops. It began to break by mid-morning. The afternoon warmed to near 70° under a broken sky, sun and shadow taking turns and the air thin and warm. Then near 4pm the cloud closed and rain came hard for two hours, a third of an inch of it. Evening was cool and dripping with the cloud shut over the city.
