What this forecast looks for
Plain-language explanation from the ruleMirror Lake detects conditions for perfect water reflections:
- Wind Speed: Near-zero wind is essential for mirror-like water
- Wind Gusts: Even brief gusts can disturb the reflection
- Precipitation: Dry conditions to avoid ripples
- Visibility: Good visibility for capturing the reflected scene
Best conditions typically occur at dawn when winds are calmest.
