Key Parameters
- Height contours at 1000 hPa:
High pressure or high pressure ridge with weak surface winds typical environment especially for radiation fog. - Wind vectors at 1000 hPa:
Moderate wind from relatively warm surface onto cold surface typical for advection St/Fog. - Height contours at 500 hPa:
Anticyclonic upper level ridge at warm sector supports the absence of middle- and upper level clouds and support favourable conditions for St/Fog at lower troposphere. - Surface dewpoint depression:
Very small difference between the surface temperature and dewpoint indicates fog or mist at the surface.
