Calm before the storm
Hurricane Sandy strengthened before dawn this morning and remains on course to hit Canada tonight with howling winds and drenching rain after blowing through the U.S. eastern seaboard.

Hundreds of Air Canada flights have already been affected and the airline is advising travellers to check the status of their flight ahead of time.

Fall ride
With the flooding and probable Canadian deaths from this storm comes much needed rain. The great lakes “our drinking water” is down over one foot.This storm will not make much difference, we need this too happen a few times a year.
Water One foot below level

Remarkable pictures. Love the yellow “boots”
thanks for the comparison shots.
The rain will be welcomed – keeping lakes full has been a concern here in TX the past few years.
stay safe.
Thanks Philosopher,
Boots are cute, thought I better post, Lack of rain hurt last few years-maybe migratory birds will make a few posts also.
Incredible work!
I find your pics haunting – in a good way, though!
Thank you very much
