TT-SEA Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 These inversion days have a repeating pattern here... sunny right from the start and then the fog becomes visible down in the valley by around noon as onshore flow increases slightly and then dense fog moves up from the valley and into my area around 4 p.m. and lasts for about 30 minutes. Then there is a weak shift in the flow back to offshore and we go from almost zero visibility to being able to see for miles in about a minute just before sunset. 2 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
