Aurora on the board for 2025!

Shot last evening in Central Virginia

Wildfire in Virginia last evening. This was one of the most intense blazes I’ve personally seen in VA - some flames were 100+ ft high.

Wildfire burning in Saint Mary’s Wilderness, Va tonight.

Light pillars shining high behind a grove of trees and hay bales in the rural countryside of South Dakota. Wind blown snow and very cold temperatures made for a great display of light refractions. Shot near Watertown, SD on December 4, 2024.

A lone tree without its leaves, snow on the ground, and distant light pillars in rural countryside outside of Watertown, South Dakota on December 4, 2024.

Beam me up, Scotty! Incredible display of light pillars last night in Watertown, South Dakota.

The -20°F wind chill and strong winds were brutal but it was great to get back in the elements after a long month of not picking up my camera.

Is there a tsunami iembot?

First ever “cold weather advisory” issued by LWX

Pretty rare phenomena I ran into last week. A rainbow on the eastern edge of the Allegheny blizzard.

Eastern downsloping warmed the blowing snow into raindrops

Another blizzard warning for the Alleghenies. Quite a start to the winter season for them this year.
