The Winter of our Discontent

By David Topping


Snow fell for part of Toronto’s first big pre-winter storm last night, but as the temperature ascended, the snow descending was quickly replaced by rain—which has been falling ever since. Torontoist’s Christopher Drost shot thousands of still photos overlooking the intersection of Annette and Runnymede between 12:30 and 4 a.m. last night, and 6:45 to 11 a.m. this morning, as the weather and the street changed together; a timelapse of what Toronto’s in for over the next several months is above.

    Very cool, but would be better if the time was also displayed.

    Thank you – I will consider for future.
    It would not have worked with this particular set up unfortunately, unless i added a digital clock in post production.
