Weather: Fogbows captured across Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex
- Published
Fogbows were seen around England's East Coast on the weekend before Christmas, including at Horsey in Norfolk
A weather phenomenon known as a fogbow thrilled visitors around England's East Coast over the weekend as conditions presented perfectly to create the near-colourless arch effect.
"On Saturday, the low cloud and fog thinned along parts of our coast, allowing the sun to break through, while fog persisted inland," explained WeatherQuest meteorologist and 91热爆 Look East .
"This created ideal conditions for fogbows."
91热爆 Weather Watchers were quick to capture the moment as a number of fogbows materialised off the coast in Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex.
Southwold in Suffolk: A fogbow is essentially the same as a rainbow, but appears when the sun shines through fog rather than rain
Southend in Essex: Water droplets in fog are smaller than rain drops so the colours in a fogbow tend to be a lot weaker and, for the most part, they appear white
Fogbow at the Great Yarmouth and Caister Golf Club: A fogbow is not a physical form in the sky but just an optical phenomenon
Royal Cromer Golf Club, Norfolk: Fogbows are also known as white rainbows or ghost rainbows due to their lack of colour
