Clear Sky


The one thing I noticed after the COVID 19 outbreak started was the Sky go quiet, you would normally see planes flying past all the time with their vapour trails criss crossing the sky. The photo below was taken in the 11th March looking over the allotments not far from our house. I think even then it was clearing but 4 pm in the afternoon you normally see something


A couple of days ago I heard a plane fly past heading towards who know were. I have seen the odd one fly past but the sky going from LHR is quite. The place is so quiet now it has become peaceful and to hear a car, train or plane is rear. I miss our freedom to go out at will and chat to friends or enjoy a walk not I certainly do not miss the noise I used to hear. I like everyone else will will welcome the end of the current situation but I will not welcome the noise coming back. Our planet is getting a well earned break

Stay Safe everyone

One airline company at the Bellingham Airport has discontinued service for the time being. Back home in Powell River the airline has shut down for all destinations to protect the public, employees and to keep their company from running out of funds. That's horrible. Powell River is isolated, only reachable by air or ferry. Now there's no choice in an emergency. - Margy

Had to look at the map to see where you are, quite out on a limb I see but in a nice part of the world North of Vancouver. Stay Safe

Beautiful skies! I notice a lot less air traffic in our area, too. Actually, all traffic is way down. Kind of ironic... if not for the virus, it would be a perfect time to be on the roads because traffic is so light. Stay healthy and safe!

My sister mention the quiet skies to me yesterday. She sees a lot of those trails in the sky where she lives and she said she noticed that the skies were clear lately. I'm with you. I want this to be over soon.

I quite agree with you about the planet, hopefully the lack of noxious gasses are giving it a break.
