I believe it was that day that some of the strangest weather I have seen
crossed me on the Mornington Peninsula.
A warmish morning with lower level fog right down into the bays. As the day
warmed and a breeze developed, waves of fog (almost like cu) rolled in from
the sea and well up onto the land an hills. Between these waves were bright
sunshine.
As they dissipated (a few ks inland) the surrounding breezes turned towards
them to fill the cooling void.
This set up all sorts of local breeze directions but the prevailing wind was
from the sea.
Quite romantic

Hi,
Not likely with winds of that speed as where would be too much mixing with
upper air (say bottom 500ft) back down to ground level and thereby not
allowing the ground to cool sufficiently.

All,
Is it possible for fog to form when the station [5 metres amsl]
records the temp at 20C, the dew point
14C & the relative humidity 70% as was recorded on the BOM weather
site at 18/9:30 PM for YLHI.
The recorded wind speed was 11kts with 13kt gusts.
John.
