gordon_dunn Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Excellent shot! Notice how the steam/smoke from the small thin chimneys in the middle are being drawn into the main lift stack from the cooling towers. An illustration of how cloud suck can influence wind direction on the ground locally. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil_P Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Slant visibility can often be very much worse than vertical vis. You might find if you were able to look straight down in the first picture that the ground is quite visible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
