Default [OBS] Romsey - Sunday 5th December 2010

The sun is clearly in the wrong hemisphere as it lacks
the strength to budge the fog or raise the temperature.

Fog rolled in across Romsey at 0800Z, thickest at
around 1030Z with 200m visibility but has stuck at
about 300m for the past hour. From time to time,
the sun is just discernible.

The general snow cover is 10%, although the local
overgrazed equine field has kept 70% cover of 1cm.
