Beautiful Sunrise Fogbow at 6.47 am

Half an hour after the Sun rose behind my house on Murambi Heights on Thursday 2nd October, a beautiful Fogbow developed in the middle of a misty morning view from my front veranda. All the conditions were right – bright sunshine from the rear with the Sun less than twenty degrees above the horizon plus clearing mist and cloud at the anti-solar point. Low night time temperature with high humidity following rain and drizzle from a late unseasonal ‘Guti’ resulted in the delayed development of the low bank of early morning mist which displayed the Fogbow so well.
