Share Your Winter Pics

After a winter storm sometimes "mother of pearl" clouds will appear, caused by humid air pressed high up into the atmosphere.

Caught this from one of the game cameras after an early morning dusting.

Some pictures from today's nor'easter... about 10" or so on the ground when my son took these...

Leaving the barn

Heading toward the street

Streetside, dealing with what the the plows give me...

Cleaning the parking pad

Sure beats shoveling sidewalks

And, if you're on broadband, a short movie clip of blowing snow:

Movie -- Be patient, it's almost 6 MB

Not bad, for a 37 year old machine, with it's original 12 HP engine... pushing a 42" snowblower...

Hey, that's not a volleyball net in that first picture, is it?
Would make for an interesting game.

Cold photos.

Nope, clothes line with a heavy covering of wet snow.

Here's my 31 year old Wheel Horse taking a break from plowing about 700' of driveway with 18" of snow today.

Nor`easter is a new expression for me, living in Norway. Is it a weather phenomena coming every year? I understand it brings a lot of snow, having seen pictures from New York in the paper. I have some family living in the Adirondacks, they talked of "the lake effect", Is that the same thing coming from another direction?

Try this discription of a Nor Easter. Click Here
Lake effect snow is created when cold air moves over one of the Great lakes. It picks up moisture and drops it as snow when air hits land.

Thank you Ron. Beeing a farmer and an ex snow-plow operator I am more interested in weather than most people.

That's classic Scotty! Great looking guy on a great looking tractor in a beautiful setting. And somehow, once again, someone else has gotten all of our snow!

Here's a pic of our cub scout tubing party Saturday. The kids still had fun and we substituted a nature hike for most of the sledding /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Beautiful picture, Gunnar!

I've always wanted to visit Norway and the othe Scandinavian countries...that pic is just more incentive to do it!

I see you own a Unimog...what do you use it for?
