HOSEA By Arkady Leokum BAL-LO- 1 Fog occurs when a cloud comes in contact with the ground. There is no basic differ- ence between a cloud floating high in the atmosphere and fog. When a cloud is near or on the surface of the earth or sea, it is simply called "fog." The commonest fogs are those seen at night and in the early ?

Schuli PEAKUTS ..... 1 morning over the lowlands and small bodies of water. They are usually caused by a cold current of air from above striking down upon the warmer surface of the land or water. Ih autumn, fogs are very common because the air is cooling faster day by day than the land and water are. On still nights after dark, thin layers of fog often form close to the ground in low places. As the earth cools at night, the lower air gets cooler. Where this cooler air meets the moist warmer air just above, fog forms. Off the coast of Newfoundland, which is one of the foggiest parts of the world, fogs are formed by the passage of damp, warm air over the cold water flowing south from the Arctic Circle. The chill of the water condenses the moisture of the air into tiny drops of water. These drops are not big enough to fall as rain. They remain in the air as fog. San Francisco fogs are formed in the opposite way. There, a cool morning breeze blows over warm sand dunes,, and if rain has moistened the sand the night before, a thick fog bank of evaporated moisture forms. The reason fogs often seem denser than clouds is that the droplets are smaller in a fog. A large number of small drops absorb more light than a smaller number of large drops (as found in clouds), and thus it seems denser to us. (Win a "Tell Me Why" book, hundreds of questions answered.
