Met Office - Un pódcast de Met Office

Met Office scientists take a lively look at the fascinating history and science of weather and climate research. Podcast regulars Doug McNeall and Claire Witham are joined by Ian Boutle to wade through the dense subject that is fog. As is tradition we start with the burning questions – what is fog? Is it really just a cloud? When does a cloud become fog? When is fog really just a cloud? What is the difference between fog and mist? We take a stab at all of them. We then delve deeper into the subject, touching on smog and other types of fog. Then on to famous fogs from around the world, brewing beer from fog and we chat to Ian about the difficult task that is forecasting fog and why it is so important.
