Skyforest, California.
Photographer states :: first a little ice, then some snow...nice combination......(in moderation).....this was actually our first major snow...over a foot so far.....long overdue....
Must have been a very strong wind and very, very cold Arctic air to create such structures out of water.
The point of this picture is the Latitude and it's noted 'long overdue' status for snow. The Latitude 36 North hold true to the demarcation of drought verses drenching of the terra firma and oceans of the Northern Hemisphere. This is more proof of the same. Am I bothered by the fact this is 34.235 North rather than exactly 36 North. No. 36 North Latitude was always an estimate and the change there with some percipitation before the major tornado events of the Midwest is expected as the solar radiation migrates north again. The Vernal Equinox occurs on March 21st at 1:19 PM est, the first day of Spring.
