The Four Seasons (pics)

Hey guys,

Was bored browsing the net and came across this place. Thought I`d share a couple of photos from 2004, showing the four seasons of Moncton, Canada.

For those not aware, Moncton is located in New Brunswick on the Atlantic coast of Canada.

Winter - looking down my street. This was taken during the first week of Janurary. Piles of snow on the sides of the road, some higher than fifteen feet. It stays there until at least mid April!! It`s a pain living on a lower floor apartment, having to shovel out your windows once a week


Spring - We`re now into early June. Much if not all of the snow has gone. Trees are turning green, mosquitoes and blackflies are out in force:mad: Taken around Jones Lake, Moncton.



Summer - Late August, and a departing multi complex storm that spawned a funnel departs the area leaving a fiery skiy. Again taken near Jones Lake, Moncton. Temperatures that afternoon reached 33.5C, but with a murderous dewpoint of 24C making it awful.



Fall/Autumn - By mid to late September, the trees are alive with reds, oranges, yellows and browns. Taken near Irishtown park, Moncton. The lake is home to Beaver (I know), Muskrat, deer, moose, black bear, snapping turtles and a variety of fish and bird life.

Beautiful pics there Bob, thanks for posting them !!

Funny you should post this - I was just reading the other day on http://www.on.ec.gc.ca/weather/winners/element.cfm?lang=e that you guys in Moncton have the most amount of "Huge Snow Days" in Canada..a good few of the forum readers here wouldn't mind a bit of that myself included!
