Something doesn't add up here. I mean, the wx looks quite flyable. Viz at last 2000; ceiling 300, 400 ft, maybe down to 200 at some patches You may not reach your destination, but you can try. You can give it a go, slow but steady, and return to base if it gets hairy. It's not like as if the wx closed in behind him. And the pilot seems very much in control of his machine, stable hover etc as shown in the second video (the earlier one in the time line).
