I'm dog-sitting this week so I took the dog down to Derby Pool late morning, and it was SO misty there! Coastguard truck went along the seawall with its siren going at one point; hope nobody was lost out on a sandbank, although the tide was ebbing it could still be dangerous as you could lose all sense of direction out there, I imagine. The mist moved, and lifted a bit later; we heard a ship's horn on the river, as it was leaving port. Friend's grandson was disappointed that the ship remained invisible in the mist, with only the occasional hoot to mark its progress towards the open sea.

I usually have a panoramic view of Liverpool,from the upper floors St Caths but today the only thing that could be seen was a 'ghostly apparition' of the Anglican Cathedral.

I chuckled to myself- even when the entire city is fogged out, the cathedral can STILL be seen.

Looks spooky ... but I do watch way too many horror movies

Could hear pile driving from Liverpool2 on that video.

Added to the spookiness ... the noise of the ghosts in the haunted fog (I mean piledriver ahem )
