How often does freezing fog occur where you live?

[Glacierx]

I would guess about 40 or 50 days a year where I live (500 m elevation), and about 2 times per year where I work 25 km away (400 m elevation).

If it's 24 hours (not specified), then there wouldn't be as many. Still not unusual though, as these are places that get around 120 freezing nights a year.

On cold days below -20°C there's often a low hanging fog that looks quite cool.

Back in January:



^^ that was a case of freezing fog all day, with a max temp of -4C / 25F. We had freezing fog a few times in January, and December last year.

It happens here most Winters but is more common farther South from me in the Forth-Clyde valley.

Never have we had "freezing fog" per say but we have had very cold fog that was close to freezing(2-3c).

[Adi from the Brunswicks]

Never Happened. Winter has extremely low dew points (usually around 10 F) up here and temperatures never reach the dew point level. It either snows or is sunny. Freezing fog is more common up in coastal Maine. I have not seen fog at temperatures below 50 F, because low dew points prevent such formations. Only time we get fog is when there is a heat+humidity surge from Florida, and this happens only in April, when temperatures are well above freezing.

Yes, it's for 24 hours, otherwise I would say about 20 or 30 days.

In my area it never lasts during the day, freezing fog may occasionally occurr only at night.

[Futurist110]

Never or almost never, assuming that the definition of freezing fog which I am currently thinking of is correct.
