Morning from Zao.
We ended up with steady on and off flurries throughout the day yesterday. The fog has not moved and is a little denser early this morning.
There are some wind gusts, but the wind is generally pretty calm - at base anyway.
We might get some clearer skies tomorrow and a good chance of that being the case early in the week.
