十年八年才一遇 大雪冷鋒襲雲城
How to turn Adverse Weather Conditions into a Winter Wonderland – in pictures.

温哥華近年很少落雪, 但在這里住久了自然知道每隔十年八年必來幾場超級暴風雪.
上次是 2008年11月至2009年三月整整一个冬季冰封雪飄連綿不盡, 謂之世紀大冰雪. 全部小街橫巷及行人道, 不論是車或是人都寸步難行. 有个朋友外遊回來, 的士司机在街口放下她, 她拖着两大行李箱跌跌撞撞慢如蝸牛「爬」回家的那一程路 畢生難忘. 市政府後來立例, 屋前行人道積雪必需各自在早上10點前清除; 有人把車泊在大街边, 鏟雪車經过往往把街边的汽車「活埋」. 欲把車子挖出來, 那些冰塊重若千斤. 現在想起猶有餘悸.
這幾年每年夏天都有人預言「今年冬天特别冷亅但事实都特别温暖. 當然, 壞了的鐘一天也有兩次顯示出正確時間, 說不定今年給他們說對了?
今冬首次降雪後結冰, 接着又落雪, 再結冰 ….. 大有重複八年前嚴寒的樣子. 好在這幾天凍而天氣晴朗. 前天一早起來窗外仿如白色童話世界. 趁着玉樹銀枝仍未退色, 趕快拍下這輯照片与大家分享.
A cold moon. It will be a cold winter ahead. 冷月通常代表寒冷天氣即將來臨.
Winter starts now. 冬季由現在開始。

Most sidewalks were clear by 10 AM. 絕大多數行人道都清理好積雪. 市政府附例發生作用. 各人自掃門前雪本應如此。
Side streets still OK. 小街積雪較多仍然車行暢順。
A treat once in many years. 温哥華落雪的日子不多,如此景色並不常見.
值得慢慢欣賞. It takes below zero temperature after the snow to have a scene like this.

Snow white . the trick is not let it appear looking blue in the picture. http://van.zsssaa.com/?p=54781 欲拍雪景拍得雪白可愛,請到上面連鍵看看.
Flowering tree is ready for Spring in December. 茶花在十二月已有花蕾; 温室葉上開花.
Still below zero but a full moon already. 月缺月圓泠鋒持續. 大家等着拍靚相可也。
原來雪景可以拍的這麼漂亮的,謝謝分享!
感谢Mr Low用心的观察拍下的雪景。原来路边的雪要在10点前铲去,原来铲雪车会把路边的车子埋掉,原来还有冷月这样的观天气现象。感谢分享!
