Extremely good visibility today 19.1.2014 Siilinjärvi

Hello!

At today I did a walking trip of 5,6km. It was sunny day and the wind was calm.
Temperature was around -15C. Air pressure 1037 hPa (sea level). Relative humidity around 90%.
Today was unusually good visibility. I noticed that because I filmed/took photos a lot today with my super zoom camera Canon PowerShot SX50 HS. It is commonly good visibility in those sunny winter days like today, but rarely as good visibility. If we think sunny days of autumn, spring or summer it is never as good visibility as sunny winter days. That is because amount of absolute humidity is lowest at winter and higher on other seasons, expesially summer when it is warmest.

The are not yet snow for skiing. Layer of snow is only about 3cm. It does not provide shelter for animals against freeze. I have never seen as little layer of snow at this time of the winter. There is not warm anymore, but does not snow either. Weird winter!
