A winter storm warning was issued for yesterday and, for a change, they got it right. I had to drive through the heart of the West Texas Snowfall yesterday morning. The snow was very heavy at times. This photograph was taken between Marathon and Fort Stockton in an area that I&#8217;ve always wanted to photograph. The feature in the background is called a &#8220;dike&#8221;. A dike is a flat vertical sheet-like magma body that cuts through older rocks and rises above the surface. There are many dikes in the Big Bend area and they are one of my favorite geological features.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13251\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13251\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/20171207-big-bend-snowfall-094-edit-e1512700243751.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"13251\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2017\/12\/west-texas-snowfall\/attachment\/13251\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/20171207-big-bend-snowfall-094-edit-e1512700243751.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
