Ice Fog
Ice fog -- which we were treated to on the weekend when the Polar Vortex mosied on through -- has nothing to do with water rising from the ground. It is all about the higher levels of the air. You know that phrase, "ah, yes, but it's a DRY cold"??? Well, it really is. Water can stay suspended in the air quite readily. UNTIL it gets to -40. At which point the water crystallizes and creates ice-fog. Thanks to Mike Baum for catching this photo this morning.
