Pea Soup..

Ahhhhhh, the dreaded commute. This view is looking east on interstate 270 from the Sappington Road overpass at about 845am. We have had some fog for several days now, and not just in mornings, pretty much all day long.

The lack of wind, and any vertical lift in the atmosphere, has left very stagnant air in the St. Louis area. Not stagnant in the same way as you would think of pollution, but just in the way of no "mixing" of the air to dissipate the fog.

It is rare that we get fog that doesn't burn off, and that sticks around day after day for this length of time. I have been waiting for it to thicken up a bit more to make taking a picture of it easier. Today was that day.
