Fog – a beautiful natural phenomenon that gives mystery to any landscape.
Fog always gives any place of mystery.
The largest number of foggy days sea level, averaging over 120 per year — is observed on the canadian island of Newfoundland in the Atlantic ocean.
View, how to look at nature and the city up there behind the fog.

Fog is an atmospheric phenomenon called the accumulation of water in the air, formed of minute particles of water vapor.

The relative humidity of the air when fog is usually close to 100 % (at least, more than 85-90 %). However, in extreme cold (-30 and below), settlements, railway stations and airfields so-called frosty fog can occur at any relative humidity of air (even less than 50 %).

Mists are artificial. The artificial creation of fog is used in scientific research, chemical industry, heat engineering, pest plants and other areas.

5. Fogs impede the normal operation of all modes of transport (especially aviation). Here the plane is landing against the fog at Heathrow airport in London January 7, 2017. (Photo By Toby Melville):
Continuous duration of fog is usually from several hours (and sometimes half an hour) to several days, especially during the cold period of the year.

There is a stereotype that London is permanently shrouded in a dense fog. In fact, the fog was typical for London in the past, in the years when England was in the vanguard of industrialization and numerous factories covered the sky with smoke. Homes in London were heated with coal. The smoke from the chimneys mixed with fog to form smog, which had the nickname the “London special”.
Currently foggy days in London approximately 45 per year. Especially frequent fogs in January and February. Recall that on the canadian island of Newfoundland in the Atlantic ocean foggy days in a year much more — 120.

“Was a September evening, about seven o’clock. Since the morning it was disagreeable weather. And now the great city was enveloped in a dense veil of fog…”

In Russia, too, has the fogs. The average annual number of days with fog in some cities of Russia: Moscow — only 9, Yekaterinburg — 12, Kaliningrad — 35, Vladivostok — as much as 116!

12. Sea fog is fog that emerged above the sea during the transfer of cold air to warm water. This fog is a fog of fumes. Fogs of this type are frequent, for example, in the Arctic, when the air falls from the ice cover on the exposed surface of the sea. (Photo By Bulent Kilic):
