But there is a way to see fog developing in the middle of the night using a different type of satellite: infrared. Infrared satellite imagery shows temperatures of the tops of clouds.

   How can fog be predicted?

   • The proper prediction of fog can have people better prepared to avoid travel delays and help prevent accidents. The following is a list of primary processes that produce fog. A combination of several of these processes increases the likelihood of fog. The higher the dew point, the less the air must cool to reach saturation or supersaturation.

   Why does fog appear if there is no wind?

   • However, if it is extremely dry regardless of temperature drop or the difference in temperature and dew point is too large, fog will be not as likely. If there is limited vegetation, it will also be harder for fog to form. Fog requires a mixing action by the wind. Without wind, dew will appear instead of fog.

   Jan 12, 2013 · Perhaps the easiest way to predict fog is to cheat: sign up for weather alerts in whatever place you're interested -- you'll see any dense fog advisories that are issued for that area. Beyond that, just watch weather conditions, including wind conditions.

   Fog requires a mixing action by wind; without wind, dew will appear instead of fog. If the surface is near saturation, a light wind will allow for the layer of air near the surface to remain near saturation.

    Aug 18, 2023 · Fog forms under two main conditions – increasing moisture and/or cooling of the air. Fog is like clouds, but it happens near the ground instead of high up in the sky. For fog and clouds to appear, the air has to cool down to the point where water vapor turns into tiny water droplets.
