Fog happens when the air gets cool and holds less water. Imagine you’re breathing out on a cold day, your breath turns into little clouds of water. Fog is like that, but it’s in the sky! When warm, wet air meets cooler air, the water turns into tiny drops that float around, making everything look hazy. Places near oceans or lakes get fog more often because there's lots of water to make those tiny droplets.
Examples
- Your breath turns into a little cloud on a cold day, that’s like fog forming.
- A lake near your town gets foggy every morning because the cool air meets the warm water.
- Fog makes it hard to see when you're driving, just like walking through a misty forest.
