As the last light began to fade off the top of Mt. Baker tonight, I captured the near full moon rising between the silo and a pancake stack of lenticular clouds! What a stunning night!

This morning's full moonset over the fall colors among the 🫐🫐! The scene was so amazing to see in person with the shaded reds, the moon sneaking below the cloud line and the birds flying overhead.

@Brennan3Hawks I would say close to normal.

And just like that the DOT just closed the road to Artist Point! Ryan Morrison shared these photos and said: “4-6 inches at artist point almost a foot at the ptarmigan ridge/ chain lakes junction where it blew in.”

The switch has flipped and Fall is "under way!" Looks like some active weather upcoming, so I am planning on a livestream tonight. 👀the mtns for this week with the potential of the 1st major storm of the season (not discounting this one this weekend).

You love to see it boys and girls! You love to see it! Mt. Seymour in Vancouver, BC at 430pm. #bcstorm #shareyourweather

@carlprothman @donhodun @PaulMarcoe @Kristin_Mae Totally agree with this. One thing also to add is that it can depend on what the iPhone is focusing on as well. If you touch the screen in different places, the light will change.

Mount Shasta was sure putting on a show with multiple stacks of lenticular clouds earlier today. Check out this incredible view from Heart Lake! Stunning!
