This part of town was generally clear of fog. I have found ZB temp reporting for central Ak to be very good.

looking like it is going to be the 2nd day in a row that the fog doesnt clear here just north of Hamilton. The fog is rather wet and thick because you need your window wipers on when driving and riding the motorbike around you get wet hair. Couldnt see any more than 100m thismorning.

Relatively warm night here on Waiheke (more like an anti-frost)... Since about 2am, it's been back to at least 12.5°C. Temps only dropped by 1.3°C as that light rain-band passed through between 5pm and 1am - 10.0mm here.
