I’m all about that early warning. A sudden, towering cumulus wall, a dip in the wind, or a chill that feels like it’s walking under the skin – those are the red flags. Keep your eye on the low‑level jet and listen for that steady growl of the wind turning. When it’s coming, lock in your composition and crank the shutter speed so you’re ready for the first burst. And yeah, I’ll say it straight: keep a thermal bag for the gear, put a little heat pack in the case, and if your camera’s a cheap model that shivers in the cold, maybe swap it out for a more rugged one. Don’t let the freeze catch you off guard – or else you’ll just get a frosty photo and a pair of numb fingers.
