[QUOTE="piperbarb, post: 110198, member: 12214"] 1-30-13: After a wave of cold weather, we have had a few days of weather in the high 40s & 50s (F). This caused a lot of melting and runoff. During the cold snap, a lot of rivers and creeks froze in spots. This used to happen every year, but it hasn't happened much during the past few years, so it was cool to see the ice floes. I was driving home from work this afternoon, and as I drove on bridge over Choconut Creek to get home, I noticed all the ice jammed up on the creek and under the bridge. The really cool part was watching the fog drift downstream towards me. A view of the ice floes upstream from the bridge: [ATTACH=CONFIG]26037._xfImport[/ATTACH] Ice floes under the bridge and downstream from the bridge. [ATTACH=CONFIG]26038._xfImport[/ATTACH] The fog lifting off the creek was really rather neat. It would come in waves downstream. [ATTACH=CONFIG]26039._xfImport[/ATTACH] A hole bunch of chunk of ice. Most of the big chunks were about 6" thick. Amazing for such a shallow creek. [ATTACH=CONFIG]26040._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
