This is where baby clouds come from.

I just watched a video about Lake Nyos and Lake Monoun the other day, and it made this picture unsettling. Even though they're really nothing alike.

So you don't have to do research for this to make sense: those two lakes both emitted large clouds of carbon dioxide that settled over nearby populated areas and suffocated a lot of people. They were basically indistinguishable from regular fog banks.

Limnic Eruptions

I love the fog even though it can be creepy. There’s some mornings I can’t see the valley to the east, but to the west is clear. Or I get out of the valley to drop the kids off and it’s clear. Which leaves a stunning view of the valley filled with obscuring fog.

Micro climates are fun!

But I quickly looked those up, that’s crazy, took the second event for them to figure out the first. On a semi similar vein, building and fire codes are written in blood, there’s a reason why underground parkades all forbid propane powered vehicles.

This was my first thought too. I guess clouds are scary to me now.

Is it a cloud or something like Mayflies hatching and it is a swarm of them?

No, pretty sure it’s fog, it was 31c and humid yesterday, there’s condensation on EVERYTHING this morning and it was 10c, and this is down in a valley.

Looks like it got up to 89rh last night and is still up there.

Careful you don't trip over it.

Or a frog with a cigarette.

There’s a Beaver nest (home? Dam? Lodge?) around somewhere, probably just having their break.
