Cold Morning In Saint John N.B

Barry's Response - Nice shot of the city, though. The Ville de Saint John isn't exactly the centre of desert heat for sure, although a temperature of 40°C has been recorded on at least one occasion. Typical summer days have a maximum between 23 and 27, while winter nights normally cool of to -13 to -20. April and October see daily highs in the 8 to 15 range usually.

The place is quite damp also, living under the constant influence of the maritime air mass. St. John gets most of its rain October and November and lowest in Jan - March when the snow falls heavily at times.

A nice place overall...I've been there in summer. Overall...

St. John's isn't known for its extreme temperatures. However, the place doesn't come without its fair share of weather challenges. Heavy rains and snowstorms can make commuting and other outdoor activities tough.

Saints Rest West Saint John

West Saint John

Barry's Response - I have been to Saint John, but only in June and July. Lovely place. I like the maritime feel and the moist air, as opposed the constant dryness we experience out west in the prairies all the time. I did find Fredericton substantially warmer in July, though.

Having said that, the winter shot shown above looks very similar to a winter photograph taken on the prairies. White snow, brown just above everything else. Except I thought blue skies in winter were common only in the prairies.

If anyone is thinking of visiting this part of New Brunswick sometime...do more than just think. Go check it out. It's a city...not too big. Just around 75,000 in the vicinity. Go to the City Market. It's big and old and displays a character unlike anything else.

Plus this great environmental consulting firm has an office there. Have fun.

Beautiful Evening By The Bay

Barry's Response - Lovely. Thanks for this Jarrett. Its interesting how things turned out pink and purple...Did you take this photo yourself?

Take a look at the bay's natural beauty and its unique ecological features, and we'll have a deeper appreciation for nature's wonders. ...such as these:

- The Bay of Fundy has some of the highest tides in the world. During low tide, the extreme tidal range exposes vast intertidal zones, creating stunning landscapes. Experience this natural tidal phenomenon and its impact on the bay.

- In the nutrient-rich waters of the Bay of Fundy, whales, seals, seabirds, and various fish species thrive, and any of us could be captivated by the abundance of marine life.

- We love seeing the geological processes that shaped this dynamic coastal landscape, including rugged cliffs, sea caves, and rock formations found along the bay's coastline.

- The Bay of Fundy is home to migratory birds and endangered marine mammals. Many plants and animals rely on these habitats for survival.

- Canadians cherished remote and wild places, seeking solitude and communion with nature. Here you can contemplate and connect with nature in the Bay of Fundy, with its vast expanses of open water.

- As a conservationist, you might see the Bay of Fundy as a place worth protecting. For future generations and it would be a good idea to advocate for responsible stewardship.

The natural wonders of the Bay of Fundy would undoubtedly be appreciated and celebrated by our passion for nature and his love of exploring wild places. This remarkable coastal wonder is likely to inspire others to explore the bay's natural realm.

Here's another shot of the Bay of Fundy. It's known for its extreme tides noted above, which can reach 15 meters (50 feet). In addition to wildlife, the bay is a popular tourist spot.
