Heathrow is all over the place today - all Domestic Flights are cancelled just now because of the Fog... must be fairly serious. Edinburgh's 7.30 to LHR left at 10.30 today; it was the last flight to leave from Edi. Glasgow has been similarly affected - I'm not sure anything has left for London all morning.

It's fine up here, mind

I worried, I am due to catcha flight to Amsterdam on Friday and the weather is forecasting dense fog!!!

This is my first holiday in years after a really stressful year I don't want it ruined!!!!

El_Greco · December 20th, 2006, 06:39 PM

I love fog

eusebius · December 20th, 2006, 08:23 PM

Yeah, they're one of the last remaining interesting acts on Ninja Tune.

Fog made me check the webcam of an office building, called the Eusebiushof, going up! I posted shots from when they layed another floor http://skyscrapercity.com/showpost.p...7&postcount=52

Simply amazing how few people are needed to build this. Two wings of 6 floors and a 'tower' of 16/60+mtrs.

Warm weather actually proves excellent in order to finish projects.

I wish drivers would switch off their fog lights after the fog has cleared.

It looks like a might not be going to Amsterdam for christmas.

I realise that no one can control this, but BA won't say if my flight tomorrow will be cancelled or not.

Also until they cancel it, we won't get a refund and therefore can't make alternative arrangements.

Erebus555 · December 21st, 2006, 12:35 PM

Bloody hell, about 5 minutes ago, I could see pretty much everything I would see on a normal day, but now the fog has blotted out my view of the house to the rear of us.

eusebius · December 21st, 2006, 04:51 PM

Building sites should always be covered in fog, thus the nimbies would never be able to see what's going up

Erebus555 · December 21st, 2006, 05:15 PM

Just went for a walk and the fog was amazing. Though my hands are numb and cold.

eusebius · December 21st, 2006, 05:32 PM

Try walking on hands and feet next, might help.

The Longford · December 21st, 2006, 06:48 PM

I fucking sick of hearing about the twatting fog!
Its beautiful in Manchester today and the only reason its all over the tossing news is because the soft South East is affected.
If it was foggy in the north no one would a) give a shit and b) whinge about it like it was the fucking apocalypse!*

For the record I like fog - its kinda cuddly.

* before you all spit the dummy i'm not saying anyone on here is whinging - just the cunting London based media.

eusebius · December 21st, 2006, 06:56 PM

People in the South East are easily scared. Maybe it should be named as organic fog, so they'll feel relieved. Maybe they are reminded of when they got lost and entered a gay sauna accidently

Erebus555 · December 21st, 2006, 06:58 PM

They did talk about Manchester airport yesterday though! Consider yourself lucky.

Well, it's foggy on one of the busiest times of the year at one of the world's busiest airports - I think that justifies all the news reports!

And we get plenty of news items from the north - usually snow and flooding.

Liam-Manchester · December 21st, 2006, 07:05 PM

There have been no delays from Manchester Airport- the visibility has been good over the past few days. Obviously flights to and from Heathrow have been affected though.

Liam-Manchester · December 21st, 2006, 07:07 PM

There was also a high of 6C in Manchester which isn't far off average. It seems to have been even milder further north, with temperatures close to 10C in Scotland.

Erebus555 · December 21st, 2006, 07:08 PM

Aparently it is -2°C outside already.

***The Boy David*** · December 21st, 2006, 09:01 PM

It were lovely today in Edinburgh. Lovely I tells ya!

And not a drop (?) of fog to be seen
