Why do they call it a blanket of fog?
Edited on Fri Dec-12-08 12:36 AM by Whoa_Nelly

They say we might have snow here in central CA Sun-Tues!

*Wow*!

1. I hate fog like that. I had a really bad wreck one time because
of fog. My best friend ran a stop sign onto a major highway and we got t-boned. The stop sign was next to a very well lit store but it was that foggy. Be careful.

2. My dear Whoa_Nelly!
They call it that because it covers us so completely, I guess!

That's a scary pic, BTW...

Stay safe, sweetie...

:hug:

Thanks for your care and concern!

Sorry I didn't reply sooner. Right after posting this thread I fell asleep!

Good thing is that even when it's foggy like this, there are street and stop lights since am living in town, so it's not horrible in getting to work. But, still have to go pretty slow. Am only about a mile from work.

You guys are the bestest! :loveya: :hi: :hug:
