chinook coming
effin chinook
It’s trying to snow. Maybe 50-60km/h headwinds. Awesome.
signs of spring
a strong chinook blasts the snowpack out of the city. probably 3/4 of the winter’s collection of snow melted away in the last 48 hours. headwinds during the ride home were 50-77km/h, making it one heck of a great workout. and I made it home without eviscerating any lung tissue. awesome.
solstice
the sun drops between a chinook-powered gap in the clouds, before setting on the Winter Solstice. It gets better.
chinook sunrise
The southwestern sky was lit up in reds and oranges. I really need to start packing my real camera on the bike again…
beneath tempestuous skies
giant poplars, dwarfed by the streaking clouds driven by strong chinook winds.
Trees and plants are great photographic subjects. Make a photograph of a tree or plant today. #ds120
sunset front
a strong chinook built up over the city for the last day or so, and this standing front held its position right overhead for most of the day.
blowing chinook
a strong chinook arch blows from the west. hopefully this round of hot pacific air will finally melt the rest of the snow and ice around the city.
