Fog patches
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-005691
Localized areas of fog that are not continuous, appearing as isolated or scattered regions of reduced visibility. These form when atmospheric conditions, such as cooling or moisture availability, are favorable for condensation in specific, limited areas rather than over a broad expanse. They are distinct from widespread fog, which covers a large geographical area.
