Birma,

Only around 50kts breeze. We survived OK, just had to chase the garden chairs around the garden unlike poor Dusty.
Many trees down including one in my work carpark.
No snow here either but go inland 15 miles or so and there is a little snow.

Took this one yesterday morning on the way to the airport.
The snow is a long way away.

All my Sony SLT gear gone. Still got my RX100 though.

Those were an enjoyable weather update Mike. I can see the snow on the hilltops in the last one.

tsawwassen 5ºc. Sunny.

Very nice scenes posted lately.

Splendid panorama jcoffin.

Yildiz I enjoyed all the amazingly different scene changes of the Bosphorus Strait from the past few days.

Really like your beach shots Mike especially the first. Very nice view of the inland with snow in the higher parts, great looking countryside.

Thank you, David. :)


Mike, that's a lovely scene; an interesting valley with bending rivers and snow-topped heights in the distance.

Still waiting for the snow in Montreal, QC.

9C, Rain :shock:

Usually there is snow in front of the house ... for the moment we wish we will receive it as a gift for XMAS.

Rain here in Istanbul also... : )

No sign of snow for Christmas. Somethings are wrong in this part of the World this winter.

Sad...

I left work in the NW of England today very early as there was a lot of snow falling and it was starting to settle on the road with the temperature at zero degrees C. I drove South down the M6 through heavy snow for over three hours - not very relaxing at all as the road was very busy with everyone having the same idea as me and heading home early. I got to 10 miles North of Birmingham and the snow tured to rain and the temperatures rose to a balmy 3.5. No snow at home, and I didn't take a picture when I was at work :( .

For the moment I know that the Murphy law will decide to put a big snow storm the days I will have to drive 6h in the north of Quebec to go see my family for Xmas. You should bring your Nex with you at work :-)

Looks like the dumpster came and carefully emptied your bin Frank. They sometimes scruff ours around a bit but I don’t think they have ever torn the lid off….yet.

You're right Frank - but it often gets forgotten in all of the 'excitement' of rushing off for another week away :(

Brrrr. Looks very chilly Frank. I think I recognise that view. Is that taken from the site where you have taken those lovely four seasons shots?

Yes :-), It is a place about 2 minute of walk from home. So we are there often. And this is the reason why over the year I have been able by searching old picture to create the four seasons shots. You have to take picture when you have time :)
