Tales of Home [5]

I was out and about early this morning and was witness to a rather cool sight.
The hill across the river Clyde from me had a massive cloud bank sitting on it that was slowly but surely rolling down over it like thick treacle and at the same time a sea mist was rising seemingly out of nowhere-



The entire upper half of the hill was gone, you can see street lights illuminating the underside of it as it rolled down-



Before long most of the hill was gone, either covered by the cloud or obscured by the mist-



It was also moving quite quickly southwards, notice the white lighthouse on the right of the picture-



Within a few minutes it too was gone-



Before long it was all gone and the mist had met the cloud-





And by the time I was nearly home it was catching me up-



This is the golf course at the end of my road, or would be if you could see it!-



And by the time I was at my own front gate it was in a big circle all around, this is the fog bank at the other end, looking in the opposite direction to the sea-

John Carpenter doesnt live around there does he ?
You havent noticed some odd, wet looking seamen with hot burning eyes wandering about ?
you havent got any stolen treasure your refusing to return?
No ?
Oh well,
great pics indeed, I always get a 'wow' feeling when its natural, strange to me how something natural feels far more eerie or scarey than anything a film set churns out. I guess cos you are actually in it & not part of an audience, you are getting first hand experience.

Cooooooool

Yes. Almost a bit Doctor Who-ee with the fog following you like that.

And you got some pretty pretty pictures in there too.

It's actually snowing here. Actually here this time. It did properly overnight, though it didn't stick around this low.

But it's literally snowing outside my window right now.    

Blimey winter doesnt hang about to get going in Fjordia does it? Hey its winter, better cover the country in snow till spring!

I can only imagine at Norcs end of the country they are already digging their way to college.

Haha, yeah. Statistically they should be drowning, I guess. It's a bit too warm for it too stick to the ground, but it is properly snowing.

It's a strange time generally for this place, actually. We even had the northern lights two days ago. Though of course I missed it. Someone even got a picture of it south of Oslo.

Though you still need to be further north to get a proper look at it.

snow? in October? crikey!.

My biggest dream is to see the Northern Lights, one day I will go to Scandilandinandiland & see them for real & get the full flavour & experience !.......one day

You could just go to the north of Scotland and then you dont have to leave the country.

Really ?? Im gonna sound quite ignorant but, I didnt realize you could see them here in Scotshobbitland ?

Yeah further north the better, but very occasionally even see them as far south as where I am.

There was snow in the air this morning here as well.. Brrr... Had to buy some warmer clothes

Yeah, I went from walking around in a sweater to my full winter jacket and a scarf in like a day or two.  

Thanks for the vid Petty,  . & its gotten a lot cooler & wetter here. In fact the rain has lashed down in bucket loads
