Severe Weather Warning in Effect or HELP somebody get me out of here
Yes this is what the first full day of Spring looks like here in Edmonton. We had been told to expect snow but I am sure this is not what the meterological experts were expecting. I took this shot today at work. I set my camera on a metal post near the shipping door set the timer and here is the result. This is sooc no editing at all.
When the wind and snow finally slowed down we had close to a foot of snow that came down.
So I have decided that if there is a nice family living in a warm climate that would like to adopt a really nice middle aged couple please let us know. We are getting desperate :)
Oh well there is always tomorrow
well, all day it's been blowing snow around here. the good thing was that it wasn't cold enough to stay on the ground, but there's a bitter wind so that by night fall, the wet ground has turned into an ice rink. nice, eh? i'm actually snowed out and wintered out already i need to go to an island where i can sit by the water and sip some mai tai!
Looks like you've had an even worse start to spring than we have! - we had snow forecast for today but none has fallen yet, but many places around are badly affected.
Looks horrible. Are you OK? This morning Edmonton was on the news on the radio because of the weather and a super crash on the highway because you couldn't look further than a few inches from the windscreen.
@ruthmouch Glad you enjoyed the story. Not so sure about sandstorms vs snowstorms but what I have seen of your country is so beautiful it would be wonderful to come and see it in person
@hjv We came out of the storm just fine. The crash was quite horrific involving close to 100 vehicles and over 300 injured and unfortunately 3 people were killed
First full day of Spring should be sunny and warm and not like what you show. we had to spend the day inside a mall instead of last year at the Botanical Garden in Toronto for our Birthday outing.
A white out! Nice high key photo. Hope spring comes to Edmonton soon.... When it's summer and those of us in the southern U.S. are about to melt, you'll be comfortable!
@eudora Well Diane spring is definitely on its way now as we have had some wonderful warm weather for the last week and a half. There are a lot of places where we can see the grass
