Miscellaneous Weather Photos in Big Sur

I’ve gotten a number of photos these past 10 days, and while I have tried to upload and post as many as possible, some have gotten lost in the shuffle of the various bulletins and emergencies, including this photo of the funnel cloud/water spout by Kristy Sullivan taken from near the Post Ranch:

And here is another by Dan Clark from the Coastlands

Next is one from Simon Eagar of the Carmel River mouth and parking lot along scenic drive:

And lastly, here is tonight’s view of Cone Peak by the usual suspect. I hope I haven’t forgotten anyone’s photos. It has been quite a time these last 10 days, and while it isn’t over – we have some good weather headed our way. I would like to remind everyone that just because the rains stop doesn’t mean the sliding has. My experience is that when the soil dries out, it contracts, and then it moves – somewhere new.

  • These are fantastic pictures. Thanks for everyone for everything you do. You do a great job Kate.:)

  • Superb work, Kate. I heard about the tornado/water spout event and the pictures are stunning. Lastly, the snow covered and misted hillside is spectacular. As always, terrific job. Thanks for the warnings, and all the cheer generated in a spring en route, filled with dreams come true.
