  5. Will Hobart ever see snow as it did 40 years ago?
    By Madeleine Rojahn

    Forty years ago today, the heaviest winter snow in 65 years descended on Hobart, and while snow does make an appearance around the city these days, waking up to a winter playground in the backyard is far less likely, say experts.

  10. Un ami m'a mis sur la piste d'un artiste canadien né à Montréal, Paterson Ewen. Sa période de 1971 à 1987 le plonge dans le monde des phénomènes météorologiques, planétaires et astronomiques. De quoi m'interpeller comme météorologue. L'Institut de l'art canadien lui consacre un bon essai en ligne: aci-iac.ca/fr/livres-dart/pate

  13. I had no idea lightnings can also exhibit Doppler effect (blueshift & redshift), do they?

    Either case, this photo of a lightning that I took last night shows some lightning arcs shifting in colour slightly to blue (approaching source of light) and red (withdrawing source of light) and they do appear to be consistent with its anatomy. I did consider axial chromatic aberration but that can't be it, the complete lightning is within the same focal plane, so...
    ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

    If you know anything more on the matter and can either confirm or reject Doppler shift in lightning, please drop me a comment.

    Also, FWIW, I did consult the usual AI suspects and all I got was a round of overconfident-cum-condescending Dunning-Kruger-esque responses. So that was about as useful as expected - i.e., not in the slightest.

  14. Caught one! Apparently, lightnings also produce a roughly 22° halo if there's rain falling between it and the cam's vantage point. Re-centered and cropped to omit a silhouette of a nearby tree and narrowed levels over the whole gamut to make the halo a bit more visible, otherwise left untouched. Oversaturation is just a side effect of mentioned levels adjustment.
