Damage from S/E winds. by gilbertwood

Damage from S/E winds.

Last week we had a run of S/E winds instead of our usual S/W winds. This is one of the walkways down to the beach - but it is now totally covered in sand! I took a photo of this for this day, but liked this one better I took last week when the wind was still blowing :)
Oh goodness .. fence is a bit over grown. great shot..

Curse the SE winds, we are plagued by them as well, so drying and my garden is suffering from the wind and NO rain. Great shot BTW Denise :)

It is a fantastic shot. And that is a lot of sand. I think I would rather be shovelling snow than sand. That is going to take some effort to remove.

I like the bit of blue-green ocean and the kite surfers. Nice shot.

This is a great shot and you really get a sense of the wind, and what it can do.

I've got to add this link again http://365project.org/dgrynn/365-year-2/2015-02-10 for the variety of weather this ol' world can cook up to entertain us!

Oh wow! that's a lot of sand where it shouldn't be. Need to do some digging! Great capture. Love the haze as the wind continues. :)

Wow. That's going to take some moving. Love the way you can see the sand blowing on the top of the dune.

This photo does double duty. We see the damage the wind has done, but we also see the fun that it provides for the kite surfers in the distance. Tells a story well. Nice job, Denise.

I pity whoever has to dig this out!

@cejaanderson @darthkitty @karlow75 Yes there is certainly a lot of sand to be removed. And it's interesting that the council have not touched it yet! @julzmaioro Thanks. It's not overgrown, but wind blown :)
@hermann Yes, there's no rain with this here either!
@oly @susiemc yes the wind has been amazing and the damage is the first I've seen. But of course the wind surfers love it :)
@Weezilou This is the beauty of 365 - we get to see the weather differences all around the world :)
@thistle Thanks. I too liked the wind blowing off the top but I had to be so careful as it was blowing directly at me and the camera - a very quick shot as the kite surfers passed by :)
@mbemis Thanks Mannie. you have "read" my story well :)
