0850z Calm 120m FZFG SKC -02.0/xxx 1044.8
RMK: Fog cleared last night just after midnight, and it was
as clear as a bell when I got up this morning ~08z, but
a bank of fog rolled over the top of the Downs between
0840 and 0850, clearing again 0920-0930z. Never more
than 10m deep. Copious rime, 0.5-0.7mm on some
plants and fencing facing last night's W to NW wind.
Slight glaze on hard surfaces from yesterday's moisture.
Bar reached 1045.2 overnight ... highest since god
knows when, Jan 1992 perhaps.

09-09 Tx -0.1 Tn -4.4 Tg -7.0 RR 0.1(fx), sss nil

You must have good eyes and an accurate ruler to measure 0.5 to 0.7 mm rime !
