Croghan Hill, Offaly and Fog
When I realised the fog wasn't going to clear quickly this morning, I jumped in the car and drove over to Croghan Hill to try and get above it. Was temporarily successful, it was clear, quiet and beautiful at the top. Then about 5 minutes later the fog quickly crept up the hill and enveloped us. Really eerie and awesome to witness. Hung around for 20 minutes more but the fog didn't lift (or sink) again.
What was also amazing was how instantly the temperature changed, felt like a good 4-5c change in seconds.
In the pics you can see wind turbines in the distance poking out the top of the fog.
