This video captures the dramatic “Levante” effect on the Rock of Gibraltar.
The Levante is a warm, moist easterly wind blowing from the Mediterranean Sea. As it meets the steep cliffs of the Rock, the air is forced upward, cools rapidly, and condenses — forming spectacular clouds, mist, and fog that often shroud the famous landmark.

At least the air is getting a breather with reduced traffic at a standstill and missed flights...but for non essential and non emergency travel that is... #fuelprotest
Wow, did you ever think you'd see the day, look at the Dublin traffic this morning! At least the environment is one thing that will benefit from it! 😮 #fuelcrisis

🌏Forecasts depend on access to 24/7 global observations. Yet many stations in least developed and & small island developing states are non-operational or reporting inconsistently.
We must bridge this gap.
Join us tomorrow for #WorldMetDay. Get involved.
