Right Before My Very Eyes

 There was a thick covering of fog on the Lake when I arrived at work on Wednesday morning, 2/29/12. After an hour or so, it began to clear, so I stepped outside to snap some photos. 

 The combination of fog and sunlight made for some beautiful effects.

 As I snapped photos, the fog quickly dissipated.

 Thinning out.

 Sun coming through.

 Nearly gone.

 Sun shining brightly.

Sometimes, the timing is just exactly right.

Still Hazy

Note seagull in upper right. From Thursday, 5/12/11.

Dude, Where's My Lake?

Another day, another foggy shroud. People just an hour south of here are posting on their Facebook pages about how hot it is. Here, we are in San Francisco, with a stiff ocean breeze and foghorns. Definitely jacket weather.

Pea Soup

Not quite that thick, but we have some fog-mist action going on. The air is warming up, but the Lake lags behind. From Tuesday, 5/10/11.

Always Look on the Bright Side

My flight was fogged in on Thursday, which meant the Friday morning flight was very early. Lucky me!
A much more industrial sunrise than I am used to on Lake Michigan.
But so colorful.
Farewell Toronto, Queen City of Lake Ontario! From 4/8/11.

Blue Moon to Gray Day

Last year on New Year's Eve we had this, in stark and beautiful contrast to today's gloomy fog. Or I could look at the picture above and see mystery and a dreary kind of majesty in the fog-cloaked Lake. Happy New Year!

Foggy Bottom

There was a fog warning popping up on my computer all day, and what do you know? It did eventually get foggy. These were taken about 4:30.
You can tell it is foggy.
But now it is foggy like out-of-a-movie-set-can't-see-across-the-street-the-zombies-are-coming-to-get-us foggy. Seriously. Foghorns are sounding in the harbor.

Glad I don't have to drive tonight. Take care if you do.

Gloomy

It was foggy and rainy the past two days--this is from Tuesday, 4/6/10. Not much to see here.

BUT, this is probably going to be a very exciting day--we are 10 hits away from the 10,000 visitors mark, so today, April 7, 2010 will be a lakemichiblog Day to Remember! And all because of some icebergs.

Fog Survivors!

I wasn't gone so much as the Lake was gone last week. Occasionally, the fog would clear and you might see something like this. How cheerful!
Though there were a few (very few) sunny moments like this.
And this (but as you can see, the fog still lingered in the background). All from Thursday, 3/11.

The Light Beyond

Beyond what? I can't decide if this is mist, a giant cloud, fog, or what, but the light is the sun, and this is a moody photo. From 9:00am.

In a Fog

You know how sometimes, you wake up in the morning and you had a rough night and don't feel right and things just seem kind of fuzzy? That's how the Lake felt this morning. But, too bad for the Lake, it cannot get a cup of strong coffee to make everything right. It's a gray and hazy day out there, warm, but rainy. Buck up, Lake, it will get better!
