  • The restaurant terrace at Cathedral Peak Hotel is doused by a passing summer-afternoon thunderstorm.  The Drakensberg escarpment is one of the highest rainfall areas in South Africa, receiving more than 1,500mm per year.  About 85% of annual rainfall falls during the summer months (ie October to March), most of it directly as a result of orographic effects and the associated violent thunderstorms, like this one.  They are typically preceded by a mid-morning build-up of fluffy cumulus cloud and fully developed by midday.  Lightning and heavy rain is frequently accompanied by hail or sleet.   Just as quickly, they dissipate by mid-afternoon, often setting the stage for spectacular sunsets.  uKhahlamba Drakensberg Park, Kwa-Zulu-Natal, South Africa.  Nikon F100.

  • Landscaped stormwater planter strip manages rain water from the "first flush" during a rainfall event.  Stormwater has filled the first chamber and is overtopping a weir and filling the second chamber.  Green streets collect stormwater runoff and route it through facilities like this planter where vegetation and soils filter pollutants before allowing water to soak into the ground.  These facilities replenish groundwater and enhance neighborhood green spaces.  Green streets require routine cleaning and maintenance.  This facility is on NE 47th Avenue at NE Davis Street in Portland, Oregon.

  • Vegetated Filter Strip treats rain water runoff from parking lot before it reaches a swale which in turn discharges the stormwater into a nearby stream.   Vegetated filter strips are now a widely accepted best management practice (BMP) for low impact development.  They work on the principle of contact time and therefore require low runoff velocities.  This is achieved by maintaining low-angled slopes and avoiding flow-concentrating features such as curbs.

  • Stormwater Management Facilities in the right-of-way provide water quality function before flows infiltrate at dry wells under the streets.  The engineered soil is the filter medium.  The inlet with steel grate is an overflow, to prevent backup flooding in the streets during storms of greater intensity or extended duration.  New Columbia project for the Housing Authority of Portland.

  • The First Regiment Armory Annex, commonly known as the Portland Armory Building, at 128 NW 11th Avenue.  The building was renovated from 2002 to 2006 (to LEED Platinum certification) and now houses the Gerding Theater, used primarily by the theatre group Portland Center Stage.   The adjacent Vera Katz Sidewalk Park, or Sliver Park, includes a bioswale for stormwater treatment and a water channel of sculpted black basalt.  The water feature design, by Scott Murase of landscape architect firm Murase Associates, is part of the building's storm water management and is fed by roof runoff.

  • Joshua Tree (Yucca brevifolia) in the Mojave Desert, is ironically inundated by surface rain water runoff after a heavy rain storm in Joshua Tree National Park, California.  Several studies have been done on these centuries-old trees.  In a current study, ecologists from the US Geological Survey linked climate change to population decline and are modeling the impacts of climate change on their survival, and the possibility that 90 percent will be wiped out of their current range (and out of this national park) in 60 to 90 years.
