62
What is radiation Fog?
- Occurs when the ground cools rapidly
- Usually forms in low- lying areas like mountain vallleys
- Occurs when temperature meets dew point
- As temperature increases the fog lifts and burns off
63
What is advection fog?
- Occurs when moist air moves over a cold surface
- Wind is required to form advection fog (Usually 15 knots)
- Above 15 knots the fog lifts and creates stratus clouds
- Common in coastal areas
64
What is upslope fog?
- Occurs when moist, stable air is pushed up a feature like a mountain range
- Requires wind for formation and continued existence
65
What is steam fog?
- Occurs when cold, dry air moves over warm water
- As the water evaporates, it rises and resembles smoke
- Common over bodies of water
- Low-Level Turbulence and icing can occur
66
What is ice fog?
- Occurs in colder weather where temperature is below freezing
- Water vapor forms directly into ice crystals
67
What is relative humidity?
- It is the actual amount of moisture in the air compared to the total amount of moisture the air could hold at that temperature.
68
What is dew point?
- The point at which the temperature in the air can hold no more moisture
69
What is parasite drag?
