I love weather like this. I just sit on the bench with my camera and take it all in. Amazing.

Me and some friends went later that night when it was darker and the waves were even more awesome!

IT was like this in Bayfield/Redcliff as well. It was crazy! We actually had a tree go down and take out the power lines and set another tree on fire. It was an amazing storm, thoug a little scary!

So many folks came near the water to witness those great waves!

Thanks

jadeeyednative how much snow came along down your way??

[jadeeyednative]

between 10 and 12 inches.. the thing is though in some places there were, of course, massive snow drifts. One of my co-workers had drifts that covered her mailbox.I know that Ashland (about 35 min from us) got more than we did. Thankfully it wasnt lake effect snow though!

We got about half as much as you all did. We will be in the sixties in a few days. Yay!! Good by snow!!!

[jadeeyednative]

Same here on the temperature side of things. I will be very thankful when all of this snow is gone!

dooalot thanks for the comment. After the waves would break on the shore the wind would carry the spray all the way into the parking lot located maybe 30 yds away or so.

The wind was SO strong, perfect for monster waves!!

Sounds like the drum & wind instruments are needing tuning. Surfable waves yikes!
