Duluth Lakewalk - November Gales
I hauled ass with my photo gear and tactically changed lenses out of the wind down on the Lakewalk after work today, as there were 8 to 12-ft. waves crashing into the North Shore. There were 33-mph winds gusting to 48 mph when I got down there at around 5:45pm, and the temperature had risen to 53 degrees Fahrenheit. This storm was moving from the Apostle Islands in reverse towards Duluth, feeding a huge Low/High pressure system coming in from Saskatchewan, Canada. All rain had stopped, and the temp went up, along with the wind and the waves! Runners and bikers were out on the Lakewalk tonight!
