Lessons Learned
A shallow cool air mass moving over a saturated, rolling hill terrain will if the skies clear lead to patches of very dense fog!
It is not probable that tiny short waves will repeatedly move over the same region – especially if a ridge aloft is building across the area.
Be careful of light and variable winds near a stalled weak frontal boundary.
