A Glacial Storm.
November 18, 2005. West of Marquette, Micigan. It is called the Dead River Area. The name raises lots of anthropological questions.
The photographer stated the temperatures were warm, followed to subzero, returning to warmer temperatures when this snow storm occurred.
My opinion is this is a misplaced storm. It very much looks like a glacial storm. When have you last seen a snow this pristine and pure white? White enough to reflect light back to space?
This is a temperate snow storm intended in days gone by as recharge to northern glaciers. It is dense and pure white. Eventually, before Global Warming vortices cranked up October 2002, this type of snow would eventually become glacial ice. If the temperature returns to freezing this 'temperate' snow might be around for awhile. It is beautiful.
