Okanagan Lake has been incredibly foggy over the last week.

The skyscape and moody, ethereal atmosphere has been incredible.

We have even experienced a very rare pink fog.

Yes, a pink fog – there were no filters applied to the above photo. The heavy moisture content in the air caused the blue wavelengths of the rising sun to be scattered out, resulting in a pink fog. Further up the valley, the fog was actually red. This incredibly rare phenomenon didn’t last long; only about 10 minutes.

Pink or not, the fog is beautiful, and there’s one other advantage: any groundhogs lurking about will definitely not be seeing their shadows and sending us six more weeks of winter!

Happy Groundhog Day!
