Fog in December
Originally uploaded by Monty Elm.
Adding to the festive spirit, foggy day on the 3rd. Had freezing fog, which is very dangerous on the road. Here's a description of freezing fog, lifted off BBC.
"Freezing fog is composed of supercooled water droplets (i.e. ones which remain liquid even though the temperature is below freezing-point). One of the characteristics of freezing fog is that rime - composed of feathery ice crystals - is deposited on the windward side of vertical surfaces such as lamp-posts, fence-posts, overhead wires, pylons and transmitting masts."
Rime, which i saw that morning. Pretty things.
