Sweeping the sky clean, falling trees

We got quite a storm today, wind speeds up to 30 m/s, in gusts. At the same time the sky became blue, the wind sweeping the clouds away, and it was sunny, which was a pleasure even though the sun is low near horizon even at noon.

The storm fell a lot of trees across roads and on top of buildings, causing damage. I don't remember having such a storm in December.

Many people were outside, walking, with cameras, recording signs of damage. Quite a show!

  1. Terve vaan...
    Katselin kuviasi mielenkiinnolla.
    Hienoa ja ammattitaitoista kuvausta.
    Kuusamo säästyi ilmeisesti tuolta Tapanin-tuulelta...? (myrskyltä)
    Olemme saaneet osamme aikaisemmista puhureista...!
    Terveisin Eko

  2. @Eko: Kiitos!

    Lunta kun vain vielä tulisi, alkaa tässä jo riepomaan kun maa on mustana aina vaan. Kunnon vuodenajat ne pitää olla, ei tämmöinen ole oikein mistään kotoisin.
