I was just wondering why the louvres are white inside? According to the Met Office standard, they are supposed to be black?!
Great article though.

Beautiful satellite image from Sunday 27th March 2022. Clear skies
for many after a week of fine, settled weather and high pressure. Drift now more off cool North Sea rather than drier continent, giving low cloud inland England. It was a much cooler day under that cloud. Fire on Western Isles (Anthrax) Gruinard Island with smoke showing in west breeze, Cairngorm snow just holding on over the tops. Haar or seafret clinging to east coast, it was further inland to start the day with very poor visibility. Bit of lift over the Southern Uplands allowing Cumulus to develop, you can see the dark shadows (which snow doesn't have).
Easterly breeze reaching across Wales and setting off undulations, the ripples in the cloud, and brighter skies.
the unnatural looking straight lines in the North Sea could be boat trails through the low cloud sitting just over the surface, or contrails. This is a visible satellite pic, an InfraRed one would pick up temperatures of clouds so Contrails (being higher, colder cloud) would stand out, but not the seafog.
