It was -83 with 20 knots of wind yesterday. It felt really cold. We hit -90 again today too! The transitioning of the seasons (winter to summer) brings winds storms. The temperatures will still be cold even though the sun is coming back, the warmth from the sun is a bit delayed.
Look how bright it is out!
There was a lot of ground scut and blowing snow, there were new pillows of snow everywhere and drifts grew a lot over the course of the day. It looks like we got about a foot of new snow in some places.
I found this little sastrugi that was being protected from the wind by this flag. This is about how it looks to the naked eye now. So bright out!!
The tent has a little cornice on it and has created a pretty big drift behind it over the winter.
The pole was looking very wind swept.
