This is what 100ft scattered clouds and 200ft overcast clouds and 1/4 statue mile visibility looked like...

Jason I have seen worse fog than even that lol. Some of the fog in wisconsin/illinois gets pretty damn thick to the point your just driving into a wall of white.

Glad I don't live out there any more.

I've been in <10ft visibility fog. It was condensing on the car fast enough to need the windshield wipers, and no, it wasn't rain. It was on I-80W in eastern PA at night in the mountains. I couldn't see the lines on the road except looking down from the driver's window.

Scary as hell. Was using the GPS to stay on the road at ~15mph.

agreed, i was at my lake house last summer with my girlfriend and we could quite literally not even see the the other side of the road. it was bad, i only knew i was on the road because if i began drifting i would end up on the gravel shoulder.

i love snow!!!

Were i used to live, San Francisco bay area, 90% of the time is always foggy. Here in Las Vegas, i've been here just over 6 years and just once, very early in the morning, it was a light fog and it disappeared in a few hours, that's it. I miss the Bay Area and the fog...
