I don't believe anyone would doubt the testimony of the 'qualified met observers' on the Mull. They were (for the most part) in hill fog. Patchy perhaps, but hill fog none the less.
But of course as we sail round this buoy one final time, you know that already!
The difficulty however comes when you try to extend that evidence out to sea, to determine the weather being experienced by the pilots.
As you are obliged to accept, that would be akin to asking drinkers the weather in the car park, as they stood in the pub!
Anyway, not long at all now, before right is done.
