The top of the Dunn Fells are white/grey I can't decide if it's
hill fog right on the summits or thin snow, I suspect hill fog more

I noticed this too over some of the Lake District hills, take a look
at them and tell me what you think, fog or snow ?


Most is cloud as you can see a shadow to the upper right but the odd
bit doesn't appear to have a shadow so falls into the hillfog/light
snow category. I can see Great Dunn Fell from here (visibilty
permiting) but didn't look in that direction on the day that that
MODIS image was taken or maybe I did but it was hidden by hill fog...

The weather has been so boring over the last week or so I've not
really paid much attention to it.
