00:00 It might be bright and sunny now, but Sydney awoke to find the city covered in a heavy
00:07 blanket of fog, which caused ferry services to temporarily stop running.
00:13 Transport for New South Wales issued an alert just before 7 o'clock, saying that due to
00:17 the conditions, ferries were unable to operate.
00:20 At one point, the fog was so heavy that Sydney's iconic landmarks, the Opera House and the
00:25 Sydney Harbour Bridge, were unable to be seen, even from as close by as Circular Quay.
00:30 For some, the disruption to ferry services created chaos on the morning commute, while
00:35 for others, the fog was a unique addition to their morning.
00:38 A lot of fog.
00:39 A blanket of fog over the city.
00:41 We're staying at the rocks and you couldn't even see the Opera House.
00:44 It was bizarre.
00:45 We walked up to the rooftop at the YHA to see the sunrise and it was just a blanket
00:51 of fog and we got to watch all the fog roll in and roll out on Morning Fog.
00:55 It was beautiful.
00:56 The shroud of fog began lifting around half an hour after the ferries ceased operating
01:01 and they were able to slowly begin running again.
01:05 Now as the fog has fully lifted, ferry services have resumed normal operations.
