There was an ice storm in Southern Ontario yesterday that affected the areas west of us and around the lake to Toronto. One could see how the escarpment plays a major role in our weather. Towards the top of the escarpment, there was ice on the trees. At the bottom, it was raining. Anywhere over the escarpment (which is south of us) the roads were icy and the trees encased in ice. At the bottom of the escarpment there was rain.
This was the scene at Benchscape where I garden the raised beds of herbs and flowers. Benchscape sits on the escarpment in Beamsville looking out over Lake Ontario to the north. In the top picture, you can see the ice on the trees with the view out over Lake Ontario. Everything was lightly coated in ice.
