Fogbow

Jyri Kosonen

When bus line 57 moved to the east, around Viikki - Latokartano - Kivikko - Kontula, there was quite heavy fog. However, at the final stop in Kontula, the sun was shining very brightly, and turning around, we found an arch of fog.

I went from morning to night with natural needs, and it seems that you can still find bedbugs even at the height of Kajaani. I captured the evidence with the camera and flashed it with my cell phone until late at night.

Alarm type, something in the north. Considering the light, quite moderately visible. Quick rap on a cell phone.

A full-bodied 22-degree tire is pushing. Apparently today also the pyra was not among them. From my own picture, I dare to guess other than the default 22r

Spring in the air, a nice full-bodied backpack is busy in honor of a frosty day

Bright night shining clouds

This must have been the widest and densest nightmare cloud I have ever seen. At 23.45 a balcony view, the clouds continued as a continuous ferry even slightly south of the zenith from the sky to the north skyline. As the sun set lower, of course, the boundary of the visible clouds also flew north, and at the last glance before going to bed at about 00.30 the boundary was already north of the zenith. However, I didn’t even manage to go to the nearby pond for a photo hunt, but I just contented to take a quick observation image from the balcony. Would anyone have access to some current satellite ...

I returned from the cottage from Kajaani to Espoo, here in the south it will be a dark and immediately comfortable night cloud bush. I periodically visit a nearby park to take a couple of raps in memory. Watch the pond picture taken with fisu and a couple of detail flaps taken from the hand on a small telescope. I didn't seem to be able to wait in the yard to wait for the darkest moment of the night, but the camera came unloaded at home, and seeing this reportage, I'm still writing a quarter to two ... the show still seems to continue from the window, which is not surprising in itself.

The morning would start with a halo. The cloud mass would seem to be thickening even further, it could be that thumping short. No indications of hr.

Light basic dusk in the upper cloud

Rare halos

11.5.2021 at 09.10 - 09.55 - Espoo, Tapiola (IV)
Jyri Kosonen

In the morning at the Tapiola terminus, the attention was drawn to the wide and vague 22r, and after peeking out of the sky through the sunglasses for a while, I was able to distinguish the backpack from about 18 degrees below. A couple of quick cell phone flaps were enough to prove that this time the imagination wasn't quite right, and I made a fuss about a possible pyrazet in Espoo. Visually, the 18r was still visible in Jorvi at about 9.55, on the way back to Tapiola I was able to distinguish possible 9 degree stuff under the sun, but at the end of the shift at 10.15 in Klov, I no longe...

Of course, as a continuation of this weekend, I had arranged a free time to go to the cottage to start. On Monday afternoon, there were rumors in Ireland about some halos. Here, too, the sun appeared behind a cloud curtain, and for about an hour it was accompanied by a basic ridge. Judging from other reports, I would have been able to record what I was lucky in my home region of Espoo.

Several halo forms

17.2.2021 at 08.23 - Vantaa, Askisto (II)
Jyri Kosonen

Askiston dawn. Temperature approx. -15C During the morning in the area observed international pillars and now the sun rises as well as natural fish. The layer of ice mist is mediocre and quite shallow, but it may be that a potato with a better storage medium could have been found in Schultzhess, for example.

Light pillars

Jyri Kosonen

On the axis Kauniainen-Viherlaakso-Laaksolahti, quite handsome international pillars were visible just before sunrise. The crystal area seemed local, in Jupper there is no information about the halos, nor is it south of Kauniainen. Guess: snow plows on the Kauniainen ski slopes? Photo from Laaksolahti sports field

The diffuse halo is somehow invigoratingly bright. Are there any symptoms of acute halon deficiency ...

As the lower clouds evaporate from behind, an ash 22r is revealed.

The alarm clock rings 3.10 At first I thought it was dark in every way. I glanced out the window to the north, noticing that there were handsome night clouds. Quickly recover an image from a vent window slot. It is not known how widely the splendor would have been sufficient. Nothing was really visible from the balcony to the northwest, but there should have been a low cloud on the road as well.
