             :2/08 MID AFTERNOON WEATHER-WHAT A CONTRAST TO
             :YESTERDAY AFTERNOON WHERE AT LEAST WE HAD SOME
             :PARTIAL CLEARING. THE FOG HAS LIFTED SOMEWHAT AND
             :FANCHER HEIGHTS IS JUST VISIBLE. THE HAZE/AIR
             :POLLUTANTS TRAPPED NEAR THE GROUND ARE VERY
             :EVIDENT. I THINK THE CAUSE OF THE PRESENT FOG
             :EVENT IS DUE TO STABLE AIR AND BECAUSE THE AIR
             :NEAR THE SURFACE IS COOLER AND HEAVIER THAN THE
             :AIR ALOFT  LITTLE VERTICAL MIXING OCCURS BETWEEN
             :THE LAYERS. OTHER THAN THAT  TEMPERATURES ARE IN
