DEW POINT—
Saturday morning’s gently warming temperatures created slowly pulsating formations of fog across the pond’s surface. Random dabs of opaque would appear and grow--then dissolve to the baton of some unseen natural law.
I believe the physical process surrounding dew point was the conductor of this silent and translucent symphony.
The weather techs describe dew point as the temperature where water vapor becomes visible in cooling air. My guess is the recently ice-free water, cooled the air immediately above the pond and this subtle but visual marvel occurred (just like in the picture of the goose published earlier this week).
