At -18C (0.5F), it’s warming up in the north. But that means snow! Today it was coming down like rain.
Spring can’t arrive too soon!
A cozy cabin and warm fire after a day of cross-country skiing, snowmobiling or other outdoor activity is a wonderful thing.
Happy Tuesday. 🙂
There are lots of parks near Yellowknife. Somba K’e is just to the south.
People love to snowmobile on the frozen lakes and it’s definitely a lot of fun, but you do need to watch out for frostbite since the wind chill can become quite high.
Happy Monday. 🙂
My doorstep railing snowdrifts are still fairly solid in the sense that they are becoming compacted, but they are slowly changing. I think that one more snow load on the one below may topple it.
And my little snowdrift snow hat has collected a bit more, too. That railing is partially protected by the roof eave, which is what has produced this shape.
I’ll see how much longer they will keep growing, but it’s getting difficult to keep shovelling the steps without knocking them over myself.
For now, the experiment continues …
Happy Sunday. 🙂
I awoke to these snow drifts near my door.
The little indentation on the lower left is where I hit this snow drift with the handle of my shovel.
This drift was against the side of my house and continued across my front steps. I had to shovel before I could get out the door!
Happy weekend, everyone. 🙂
We get a lot of this …
After a lovely little reprieve of -5C (23F) for a couple of days, we plunged to -35 in a matter of hours. This resulted in a very heavy fog that quickly froze as it cooled and settled. We had a thick rime on everything.
Very cold, but a beautiful result.
It’s Friday! 🙂
Here’s the snow accumulation on the step railing outside my door. I’ve been letting it pile up to see how high it can get.
This is about a week’s worth. Happy Tuesday. 🙂
