03/02/2018 Yesterday today once again. Freezing fog!

Maximum temperature today 5C, minimum -2C. Raining as I type this but not measured yet. North Westerly winds; 9 km/h with up to 27 km/h gusts.
The first time we have seen the moon for a month due to cloud cover! Hand held I was too lazy to get the tripod out!!!

The garden, frost and freezing fog...

Just down the road; we had to go shopping...

Many cars were driving without lights on!!...

Spooky...

It gets worse...

and worse.

In the evening we had a little blue sky and a few tinted clouds.

  1. You have alliterative weather - frost and freezing fog. I was thinking of adding to the alliteration but I had better not! It sure looks grim there and I can’t believe that people were driving without lights.

    1. We noticed that the ones with no lights seemed to be most cars like BMW and Mercs, obviously they think they are obvious regardless of weather conditions!! Diane

  4. Wow that fog is bad. It does make moody photos though. I wouldn't like to drive in it. It is still warm here even though we have had a few days of much needed rain and it did cool down considerably like to 22°C. Hope you see the sun soon and I hope you are over your illness. We are fine.

    1. Glad all well there. I am over the flu or whatever it was as such but I am still coughing,it will not go away! Driving was not nice but it would have helped if if a few stupid people had turned on their lights!! I would be very happy if we were 22C! Take care t'other Diane

    1. Some people drive far too fast and others think they can be seen without lights on. Mad!! Hope all is well Diane

  7. I can't believe there were some driving without lights in that weather Diane, that's so dangerous! Definitely weather to venture out in as little as possible.. especially if you have a cough 😀 Looks amazing though!

    1. There are always some idiots on the road, they obviously don't care of they have an accident but it would always be the other person who gets hurt!! Yes not good for a cough!! Cheers Diane

    1. Thanks Mia but I guess the fox was supposed to be fog :-)) Take care Diane.

  9. I wouldn't enjoy driving in that fog, and what in the world would cause people to drive without the lights on. That's beyond my comprehension! Great photos though, Diane. You did an awesome take of the moon. :)

    1. Driving in fog without lights on is madness but there are some people in this world who are mad I guess. It will always be the other person who who would suffer if there is an accident! I was surprised the moon was so good being hand held! Take care and keep warm. Diane

  10. Hi Diane. What a beautiful sunset to end an otherwise miserable day. It is scary driving through mist, especially when other drivers think they are indestructible and drive without lights - a common occurence in SA. We have had a few days of drizzle here and temps in the 20's (celcius). Take care. Kim

    1. Oh Kim I know about SA drivers!!!! They do not even stop at traffic lights when they are red!! Hope the drizzle is enough to keep the garden damp. 20 C sound better than our minus figures!! Take care Diane

  11. Pretty sighting of the moon! So dangerous to drive in such condition without the lights! Yes, the road scene looks very spooky. I like the evening sky!
