FOGGY WEATHER.
ROAD TRAFFIC HAMPERED. (Special to Dailv Times.) AUCKLAND, February 21. Fpr the past two mornings exceptionally he'avy fogs have been experienced at Mercury Bay. Fish lorries with supplies for Thames have been unable to proceed until the mist has cleared. The fogs had a most peculiar, woolly appearance, and it was most difficult to breathe. The fogs were particularly heavy over Coro Glen. A lorry driver had to wait there for two hours before he could travel in safety. One resident recalls a similar experience after the Tarawera eruption. A car driven by a traveller was returning to Thames when it ran off a bridge near Kaimarama. The driver received a shaking, but the car was salvaged undamaged. A number of people have been affected by the fog.
