Foehn Aberdeen - Pilots' weather
It was always fun landing at Aberdeen in these conditions:
EGPD 130950Z 28026G40KT 9999 FEW030 11/00 Q0990 NOSIG=
Splendidly turbulent wind some 60° off the runway. Real pilots'
weather.
(I don't suppose these cheapskate airlines even give out sick bags
nowadays. A quick spray of the cabin floor afterwards is apparently
considered adequate).
Note that low dewpoint of 0°C, a typical feature of foehn conditions.
