The sun broke through properly and we were out of
fog limits by 1315Z but fog banks were never very
far away, advecting back in at 1520Z at quite a rate
of knots, thicker than before. Best visibility today
was 1500m and we enjoyed bright sunshine for a
couple of hours with an edge of Cirrostratus seen
to the south. Quite a transformation back into the
gloom in a matter of minutes.

The air temperature has fallen sharply from a max
of +2.4C at 1505Z to just +0.5C, 45 minutes later.

... yes, we're going the same way: afternoon maximum 3.7°C, and the bright
sunshine was welcome, but now (1800Z), it is -0.8°C, virtually clear
skies, the pavements 'sparkling' in the street lights and the fog is
closing in. A 'chilled to the bone' sort of evening.

Martin.


Guess you might get some rime ice though to add a bit of sparkle in the
morning!
It can be so beautiful you know, especially just after the fog has lifted
and the sun shines on it.
