Very nice!

I've been out in 8m waves for a short time (it took a few hours to turn around)

You're probably getting close to that condition now. Duluth, and up the North Shore is getting slammed with snow and wind. If you have the right kind of wetsuit you could be surfing now.

Not a wetsuit but Drysuit... Don't surf but it is a big wave day.

The view in my side yard this morning. A couple inches of wet snow, and expecting about 4 more today.

@FrostyBeach, you having fun with the foot or two you've been getting?

We got about 20 inches (~50cm) of very wet snow and now it's supposed to rain today. I do love winter. If my leg would let me I'd make a snow sculpture. Here's an older one:

Live edge floating shelves for my Whiskey Collection!

Yeah, you could call those Bon Jovi shelves, because the ones on the ends are definitely living on the edge.

 

[MaxStout]

Nice selection. I have a few of those.

And more on its way, ain't Minnesota fun?

I'd take a picture, but everything here is just wet and gray!

Blue sky again, but hardly any water in the river.
Loadshedding has started in the capital. 12 hours a day

They told us La Nina is over for us in Aus so hopefully that might mean rain for you guys...

 

[MaxStout]

Received about a foot of snow so far, a few more inches on the way before this ends tonight.

Good thing they don't sell electricity to you!

Just for whoever is interested

Wow! Worse than the power cuts is the impact on the fish used to feed many low income people. In past zoom calls or forum threads you mentioned renting out boats. Does this impact your business as well?

 

[Zambi]

To a limited extent.
Launching boats is not possible as most slipways don't reach the deep water, but my boats are already in and we can still move. Gotta be careful though of rocks and hippo.
Less water, same amount of hippo, so higher concentration.
I'm lucky as I got deep channel in front of me so I still got water. A friend of mine (couple km downstream has to get water by bucket as his pump inlet is out of the water)
We are in the rainy season, but it takes time for the water of the swamps in the North to get here.

But I wouldn't so much blame this on climate change, but mainly on sheer incompetance

Mmmm, Thicker Hippo Porridge. Delicious but very, very dangerous.

Cute tapper we saw at a small town watering hole last night.
