Punta Las Zorras, Peru: The usual bank of coastal fog and stratus found in this remote coastal area north of Lima, Peru, are progressively being eroded or evacuated by brisk south to southeast winds. Either the small headlands here are channeling the clouds into streaks or the clouds are banked against the larger, obstructing headlands. Note the dry land argriculture near the small rivers.
