Lesson Du Jour

Looked up this morning and what did I see but what looked like fog – and only over the lake. I’ve seen land fog and sea fog in my travels but don’t recall this phenom.

So I went to trusty Mr. Google and found this is actually called freezing fog and occurs when the air temperature is below freezing ( it was -7C) and the water droplets in the air become supercooled (by the ice on the lake in this case).

Freezing fog typically occurs in the nighttime so this was a rare occurrence (it was 8:03 a.m.) – lucky me!
