By popular demand, here are a couple shots from this afternoon. The clouds dissipated, the sun came out to play, and Cone and Twin Peaks finally displayed their winter clothes. Thank you, Big Sur.

These snow photos preempted  my intended 1/31/98-1/31/16 comparison post, so I will post that tomorrow. Still hoping for a spectacular sunset shot, too.

  • Beautiful! We had a little dusting up in the Santa Cruz Mts. this morning too. Thanks for sharing. I haven;t keep a running rainfall total but we've collected 18,000+ gallons so far this season, it's a wonderful thing.
