Canal Park Wave Danger

Wave watching during Noreasters is an incredible experience. Sometimes watchers get a bit too close as shown in this scene from the Duluth Canal Cam taken Saturday evening.

Rollers!

I was able to take a few pictures Saturday during the storm, well maybe more than a few.

So, I have made a gallery over on my website for anyone interested. You can view the images here at northernimages.com  -- Enjoy the scenery!

Canal Cam Icing

FYI,

There is a small heater inside the case of the canal cam that will melt the ice, however, it is building up faster than it can be melted.  Once the winds change, it should clear up.

Wind and Waves!

I spent the day enjoying the storm!
