A surprise visit from Mother Nature by bkbinthecity

A surprise visit from Mother Nature

For those of us who live in Edmonton, a day like this in March is just par for the course. We were having beautiful weather and almost all of the snow had melted and then this storm hit around lunch time today.
I took these shots downtown on my way home from work. It is now 7:30 in the evening and the snow is still coming down. It is supposed to continue through until tomorrow
I may have to change my plans for a nice hike this weekend
Now it is time to go and pull out my winter coat and mitts and boots for tomorrow morning
awww, schucks! that just sucks, doesn't it? i hope we don't get that but rain's predicted here for the weekend, but mid teens temperature. hope it gets better there, too. nice collage, though.

Nice spring snow..we have been having record high temps here so I don't think we will get a spring snow this year..but you never know!
March 23rd, 2012  
wow. it was 80 in New England today. nice collage!
March 23rd, 2012  
:) Probably no hike this weekend? Great collage
March 23rd, 2012  
Ooh, you got snow. It went to around 80 degrees here today. Lovely collage.
March 23rd, 2012  
Wow, snow!
March 23rd, 2012  
Oh no! Please don't tell me snow is on the way!! All my friends will be telling me "I told you so!" as I have been insisting that we will NOT get snow now! Great collage on the whimsy of Mother Nature.
March 23rd, 2012

March 23rd, 2012  
I just LOVE this collage, Brian! We had almost eighty today. But it's raining tonight and who knows what else is coming. Love your snow photos .. each and every one.
March 23rd, 2012

March 23rd, 2012  
@cindyrez Yes with someone as tempermental as Mother Nature you really do not know
March 23rd, 2012  
Nice collage! When all that cold weather drifts South and hits our hot air that is when the tornados start happening.
March 23rd, 2012  
This is usually our spring, as well. Not this year! I love your collage so we can see different shots of Edmonton's weather.
March 23rd, 2012  
@summerfield Thanks I guess I just have to be a little more paitent
March 23rd, 2012  
@debsphotos You are welcome. Now If I could just get rid of all this snow
March 23rd, 2012

March 23rd, 2012  
@zuzana I never wish snow on anyone
March 23rd, 2012  
Nice collage of a snowy spring day. March looks exactly the same in my country!
March 23rd, 2012  
The same here for the last few days - today is sunny - then cold weather again.
March 23rd, 2012  
@titam But soon the nice weather will be here to stay
March 23rd, 2012  
@naladka Thanks
March 23rd, 2012  
What is UP with our strange Canadian weather recently????
March 23rd, 2012  
@pwallis I wish I knew
March 23rd, 2012  
Wow! I love snow but i think the Spring bug has touched me already! ..i used to be a northerner so i can feel the pain! :)
March 23rd, 2012  
@ellimae I am getting that spring itch for sure
March 23rd, 2012  
Gee is that ISO distortion? I don't recognize that white stuff. Great Shots.
March 23rd, 2012  
@jolefont Thanks Jo-Ann
March 23rd, 2012  
What great photos of the snow. We had 70 degree weather yesterday and today the dark clouds came in and the wind and cold started up. Rain in the forecast for tomorrow and the weekend. The flowers we saw tonight are weathered as it gets warm then cold, windy and raining. No snow, you can keep that, but what a mixed up season or two we are having.
March 23rd, 2012  
awesome. love the falling snow.
March 23rd, 2012  
@http365proj Well I am glad you like it
March 23rd, 2012  
@darsphotos The weather has been something else this year for sure
March 23rd, 2012  
nice collage of the snowy weather - and unseasonable warmth often means a later come back from Mother Nature - although we're properly into spring here.
March 23rd, 2012  
Interesting montage, just as it seemed to be getting warmer
March 23rd, 2012  
How frustrating!!! I can't believe we have had 3 days of sun so far this week here...still not put away winter clothes yet though lol ...great capture :D
March 23rd, 2012  
great collage.. you are getting all of our snow!
March 23rd, 2012  
Snow? Snow? I didn't know that existed any more the way we've all been talking spring has sprung and unusually warm temps around the planet it seems. Nice shots makes me feel like Christmas around the corner. Hahah. Have a nice weekend.
March 23rd, 2012  
Great collage -- glad you are getting the snow!! But our nice weather is changing next week.
March 23rd, 2012  
that storm better not keep coming east! nice collection of pics
March 23rd, 2012  
We had the same Spring Day here too! in early morning snow and by ten the sun was shining! Temps are still under 10 degrees! Awesome collage!
March 23rd, 2012  
Yikes! Snow? Hope it doesn't last long and you're back in spring weather ASAP.
March 23rd, 2012  
Nice collage Brian...makes a change from all the sunny spring pics going up on 365!
March 23rd, 2012  
Well captured Spring snow shots! Hope the weather gets brighter and warmer for you.
March 23rd, 2012  
You have a good collage of this silly weather. We are having much the same here in Calgary.
March 23rd, 2012
