Fairbanks Ice Fog - 2012



It's been cold up there recently, but the cold weather will break soon for them:
Veteran Fairbanks photographer Eric Muehling posted this great video of ice fog at 50 below. It includes a shot from Farmers Loop of the downtown power plant plume, which is mostly fog that forms from water vapor, and a dashboard view of local roads on a chilly winter day.

Muehling compressed four hours into 90 seconds, which is plenty of time to capture the essence of the cold conditions.

..."It's interesting that the high-altitude clouds appear to be moving to the east," he said. The plume is moving west.
