    I even wrote a poem about it in my blog.

    We call it freezing fog here.
    The results can be quite spectacular. It puts a very fine crystalline ice coating on everything it touches.
    Then if the timing is right the fog lifts and the sun sparkles on an infinite number of jewels on all the trees and vegetation.
    I'll have to see if I can find a picture to post.

    I'd love to see a clear image of ice/frozen fog.

    It's foggy here this morning. And 70°F.

    This is a spot on my bike ride to work near the river.
    The freezing fog has just lifted.
    I'll have to get another in the winter, when it's even heavier. This one was in the fall a few years ago.

    To get a clear image of ice fog you need to get above it which is tricky because nobody wants to fly in that shit buts here's a good one, from Fairbanks.

    Underwhelming, as per usual. We have 2–4in predicted, maybe, on Wednesday? Temps will probably be high enough that accumulation won’t amount to much and won’t stick around.

    I’m still putting my studded snow tires back on my bike, so I can at least get to work. Sorry, Mom.
