According to the National Weather Service, there are five different types of fog: radiation fog, advection fog, freezing fog, evaporation fog, and hail fog. Radiation fog is very common.

One of them is "radiation fog." This is a more simple type of fog, where you need some clear skies and also some calm winds. This fog happens because heat rises out of the ground and escapes.

Types of fog and their formation Radiation fog is when the ground is colder than the environment. It generally happens at night when the ground cools due to heat loss from the sun.

Radiation fog is also usually patchy, tends to stay in one place and goes away fairly quickly the next day as the ground starts too warm. Credit: 10 Tampa Bay.

Fog is formed when water vapor condenses into droplets in the air, and the most common types are radiation fog and advection fog, among others, which are formed under different weather conditions.

There are two basic kinds of fog: advection fog and radiation fog. ADVERTISEMENT. Advection fog is often produced over the cold water of the lake during winter, spring and early summer.

Radiation Fog: This fog forms when all solar energy exits the earth and allows the temperature to meet up with the dew point. Precipitation Fog: The fog forms when rain falls through the cold air.
