Fog

As long as "Storsjön" (or the "Great Lake") hasn't frozen, the cold brings about a thick fog from time to time which dresses everything in a frosty lace. It's often so thick you can look directly at the sun without hurting your eyes.
It reminds me of a sandstorm, but without the wind and ice crystals replacing the sand. The fact that it was -20 C today takes away the last of the likeness to a sandstorm I guess.
The image below: A sunny day in Lit if the fog over the unfrozen river hadn't erased the sun almost completely.
Those petrol prices look good, but unfortunately I think the sign was broken. Perhaps it suffered from frostbite?

The central heating plant in Östersund works hard trying to ward off the cold for the households connected to it. I feel there is a global warming issue somewhere in this image.
