Warm and moist - air changes with location

Something you only really notice when cycling is localised air temperature changes.

The most common are in the summer as you pass through shady bands of coolness. But I had an odd one this morning. It was cold - just above frost - until I came to the low lying point where I cross a small river that enters the sea. It was suddenly very (relatively) warm and very moist - my glasses steamed up.

Shame the warmth doesn't extend to the point where I came off on ice a couple of years back.

Summer FNRttCs to Felpham were always good for some dramatic local temperature variations.  I remember one time getting impressively soaked by a dense patch of low-hanging mist shortly before the halfway stop on what was otherwise a dry ride.

There is a localised pocket of absolute bloody freezingness as you pass the cemetery at the bottom of the southern side of Stamford Hill.  Make of that what you will.
