I’m in Calgary over the Family day long weekend, surprisingly, visiting family. For once I am using a holiday like it is supposed to be used! Unlike Toronto, it is quite like winter over here; there has been snow on the ground for a long time, but luckily there hasn’t been a storm while I’ve been here.

There have been some weird weather forecasts though (aside from Chinooks). One time, I saw something called frozen fog. I have no idea what that is, but I think it leads to all the trees, evergreens, shrubs, etc in Calgary looking like this:

I’ve seen this before in Waterloo, but usually the trees melt before noon. Not so much here, and it stays around for the entire day. Makes the neighborhoods look like they walked out of a Christmas scene!
