So yesterday was all about data. Dates and times described the solstice.
However, today was a very nice day here. It was partly cloudy and plus 7 C most of the day.
It was chinooking. So we are getting a wind from the west and warm air.
As I've described before there is a chinook arch. The arch stretches across most of the western horizon. So I have a photo from just before 9:00 AM and one around 4 PM. Don't look at my times. I have to reset the camera.
That's really cool. It looks like a blanket rolled up. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteIt's a distinct line between cold and warm air.
DeleteI like those nice warm days during the winter. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to your and your family.
I don't like thawing in winter as we get ice.
DeleteA mid-winter chinook must be so pleasant -- a nice little break. Or am I wrong?
ReplyDeleteYou are exactly right that it is a break. The cattle appreciated the break.
DeleteThe seconds of light we are getting every day now give me hope for spring.
ReplyDeleteYes , and in a week or so it changes to a minute.
DeleteSo interesting Red - I shall go away and read about it. Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year with your family.
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas to you and your family.
DeleteToday here is clouds with snow expected in the afternoon.
ReplyDeleteWe all get those days .
DeleteGreat pics! Merry Christmas to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Merry Christmas to all of your family.
DeleteWhat a wonderful winter wonderland!
ReplyDeleteI like snow. I don't like it when it gets icy.
DeleteWe are getting wind from the West...a Lot of wind from the West!!
ReplyDeleteMajor winter storms are dangerous.
DeleteHappy Christmas Red and the micro manager!
ReplyDeleteThankyou and the same to all your family.
DeleteI remember the chinooks from my early days. A wonderful warm stretch in a long cold winter.
ReplyDeleteYou're right that it was a very pleasant stretch if warm weather.
DeleteThanks for my weather lesson today Red, enjoyed the photos too.
ReplyDeleteChinooks actually happen in quite a few places.
DeleteCould you speak about a chinook arch again please Red.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Red, to both you and the micro manager. I need to read and learn more about Chinooks??
ReplyDeleteI see what you mean about the arch! Hope you and the MM have a great Christmas!
ReplyDeleteToronto is in a warm spell too, no white Christmas.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you & yours, Red! Wishing you peace, happiness and good health!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Red. Best wishes to you and the MM. John
ReplyDeleteI missed wishing you a Merry Christmas since I was dealing with so much termite and other craziness at our house. But I can wish you an early Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI first heard about the Chinook when we were at Yellowstone and there was a singer who sang a song about it. I'd never heard of it before then.
