Snowy shore, redux
The snowstorm did not, as teased, leave the shore with more snow than inland. Just a couple of inches fell in beach towns. I went out to the beach this morning and assumed I'd see pretty much the same snow covered landscape as last week, when a few inches fell and covered the beach. But the thing about the beach and the ocean, is they always surprise you. And a look at the beach in Ventnor this morning makes it clear that the snow stopped falling just about the same time as high tide: 1:46 a.m. This morning, just before low tide, you could see clearly how the ocean was covering up most of the beach during the snowfall. So rather than snow covered beaches, it was a band of snow and then a band of sand. A unique landscape of snow and sand and a rising sun greeted the runner in this photo.
