SNOWY IMAGES
This weekend , Sept 27, 28, and 29 we had snowfall. We were very fortunate as we missed the very heavy snow. We had maybe one or two cm. Further south the storm and snowfall were brutal. Waterton Lakes National Park, on the American border, had 95 cm of snow. They had the snowplows out. Calgary had about 30 cm of snow. It slowed a large city down and there was lots of street clearing.
Black current, raspberry and gooseberry.

...I always look forward to out first snow of the season, I can wait!
ReplyDeleteWe usually get something in September and then we can have a long spell of very pleasant weather.
DeleteWow, that was a LOT of snow in Waterton Lakes. You got a pretty dusting. :-)
ReplyDeleteYes, 95 cm would be a big problem. I don't think that will melt before winter.
DeleteOh my gosh! In September? Good grief!
ReplyDeleteTrue! We usually get at least one snow in Sept.
DeleteI've been hearing about a lot of snow near you! It is pretty but I know it can be a problem if you get very much snow when all the leaves are still on the trees. This has happened to us and we had quite a few broken limbs as a result of the extra weight. You have some pretty pictures and I'm glad to see your streets were just wet and not icy!
ReplyDeleteWe've had Sept snows like that but not this time.
DeleteSNOW! Already? I cannot believe it.
ReplyDeleteHey, last year the snow came two weeks earlier.
DeleteHello, It seems early for snow, I am not a fan of winter. The snow is pretty to look at covering the bushes and trees. Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy weekend ahead.
ReplyDeleteNot early for snow here . we usually get one snowfall in Sept.
DeleteIs it early or normal for your place? I always like the view of fresh fallen snow, a bit fairy tail looking....
ReplyDeleteThis is normal but at this time of year it always melts and we can get some very nice weather in OCT.
DeleteWow! And I thought WE had it bad because we had to turn our heat on!
ReplyDeleteWEll snow doesn't make it cold. The weather system controls the temp.
DeleteIt's very wet snow. We've just been having rain.
ReplyDeleteYes, most of it melted when it hit the ground.
DeleteSaw this on the news.
ReplyDeleteThis system set all kinds of records for amounts of snow.
DeleteThe first snow of the season is always so pretty... but then winter keeps coming.
ReplyDeleteI hope we get another month of nice weather.
DeleteThat just makes me happy to no end!
ReplyDeleteI hear ya!
DeleteOne thing about snow - it's very photogenic :) That snowfall south of you is rather overwhelming.
ReplyDeleteNew snow makes things fresh and clean.
DeleteWow, rather early for the white flakes to be falling. Lorenzo is making a visiting us tonight. The wind has increased all day, the rain will come later.
ReplyDeleteI'd rather have snow than the big storms.
DeleteAnd so it begins for you up north. Brrr.
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't very cold and I hope it's another month before we get any more.
ReplyDeleteI am sure glad we missed the big dump of snow that Southern AB got!
ReplyDeleteAnd so Winter starts for you, we turned colder but no snow yet, 60 miles north of us had snow:)
ReplyDeleteIt looks pretty, and nice and cool since our temps were still in the mid 90s yesterday.
ReplyDeleteGlobal warming? Shucks! Alberta seems to be suffering from global cooling.
ReplyDeleteHope you will get to enjoy some nicer weather this month.
ReplyDeleteisn't it an early snowfall ?
ReplyDeleteour weather got cool with even one rain so i can imagine how cold can your weather be brr
