I thought I would take a little drive today and see what the cold looked like here, these are a few things I saw. The temp. was about 19 degrees at this time.

This was along Columbia Park Drive, there was a flock of Coots floating close to shore.

This is the Yakima River where it runs along Van Giesen in Richland looking north towards Rattlesnake Mt.

Close up of the ice on the Yakima, very odd sensation when I parked, due to the movement of the ice it gave the sensation that my car was still rolling.

This is looking south along the Yakima River at a flock of geese on the far side.
