Catch some wild weather on camera? Share it with The Modesto Bee
By Bee Staff
With continuing rough weather in the Stanislaus County area, we’d like to see your photos and videos showing incidents as they happen — street flooding, rushing creeks, traffic accidents and backups, and downed trees and limbs, but also lighter-side images, such as you out in the elements in your rain gear.
Email them to local@modbee.com with “wild weather” in the subject field. Remember to include the location and tell us what is happening in the picture, as well as give the photographer’s name.
We will update this story with submissions or may otherwise use them on modbee.com or in the newspaper.
Modesto? Snow, it’s not. But Loreen Eggelton, who took and submitted the photo, wrote, “Although not local, this is what it looks like in South Lake Tahoe today (Wednesday, Jan. 11, 2023). Sometimes viewers enjoy seeing what it is like outside of their familiar neighborhood.” She calls the photo “Igloo Sweet Igloo.”
