There was a huge windstorm today accompanied by crazy black squalls. The sunstreak in this picture is very mottled, as the sun tried to peek out of the storm with variable success right at the end of the day. The rocking chair was constantly being rocked by the wind; what you see here is the aggregate rocking of the chair over 9 hours.
