Wind-sculpted snow

Posted on by Ian C.

Todays “blizzard” is so far causing no issues – although I admit that if I had to drive somewhere today, I would not enjoy it at all! There is some snow around but it’s really hard to judge how much because of all the wind and its effects – while walking outside, I had snow above my knees, but in other places there is clear ground! One major effect of the wind though was to curtail my photo trip after only a minute or two (it’s FREEZING out there!)

Anyway, a few pics of GBMINI and the surrounding snow, and how it’s been sculpted by the wind:

Here comes winter!

We’ve had a very easy winter this year, with temperatures in the 50s a couple of weeks ago … but the temperatures have dropped significantly now, with this when I got in GBMINI yesterday morning:

Cold weather

And now, the Weather Channel says we could be hit with 12″ or more of snow overnight & into tomorrow …

So expect some white pictures tomorrow (unless we lose power!)
