Geez, Really Nice Ice Fog, Guys !


Recommended Posts

So we fly in here today, from sunny(not kidding, "sunny") Hongcouver, for the FF Expo and what is THIS??? ICE FOG ???? Is this caused by your own little "greenhouse effect" or is it vehicle exhaust?

At least it doesn't smell like a barn anymore, what was up with that last night? I left work (downtown) at 10 PM last night and the whole area smelt like a cattle truck, talked to some people who live down south (Shaunasey) and they said they smelt it as well.

Rick,

 

The funny thing is I keep on hearing on the news out here how they say there is going to be no problem that if the temps stay below freezing thwey can make snow, but if the snow is melting out there I doubt it is elow freezing, surprising how the media can twist things.

 

Hey think of it this way though, for ski jumping instead of landing on snow they can land in a swimming pool instead.

I am working at the Olympics and by what we have been told, it should be OK. They have been storing snow at the peak of Cypress and are going to truck and Chopper it down when the time comes.

 

We will see, if this does not work, We are in Deep crap because as far as I know there is a HUGE fine to the city if the event can't go on!!!!
