It was blowing a strong N-NW warm wind with sunny skies up there right from when we arrived at 10am.
However as we got closer to the sea the fog lay in pockets stuck funneling up and around the valleys.
But what I had never encounterd before was when we stood out on a ridge above the fog, the wind would be blowing a warm strong NW then suddenly flick to a colder eastery wind and i mean about a 5-6C difference.
Then it would flick back warm NW again, but just the actual feeling of such an abrupt temperature change was rather an unusual feeling.
I also noticed as the fog was clearing out at sea during my lunch break, that with the winds shifting from a NW-E there were what I would call Fognado's ( just fog spinning high into the air like a funnel)
.I was surprised how long that Fog hugged chch today especailly with the NW flow kicking in.
Cheers
Jason.
