So the ‘near miss’ asteroid passed overhead last night….well I went out with the binoculars at various times and no luck…..I reckon it was just a story! But I do know that the temperature dropped like a stone and with clear skies we did at least have a chance of a sighting. I hope you had more luck.
Those clear skies remained till dawn and indicated what had passed overhead in the night……
Vapour trails tell there own story. That sudden fall in temperature ensured that the Lake froze again……
The benefit of the clear sky was that the sun was very soon warming the air but of course with all the moisture from rain and snow in the ground this sudden increase in temperature produced a heavy morning mist….
But the mist was not to last for long and soon started to melt away..
much to the delight of the early starters on the Golf Course, visibility improved and they were able to get their game started on schedule…
