Ska vi vara tekniska - och det ska vi ju! - är det också ”fog” och inte ”mist” kring Dimön, eftersom sikten är 35 meter. I så fall blir det Foggy Island, till exempel.

Fog
In our meteorological glossary fog is defined as 'obscurity in the surface layers of the atmosphere, which is caused by a suspension of water droplets'.
By international agreement (particularly for aviation purposes) fog is the name given to resulting visibility less than 1 km. However, in forecasts for the public, this generally refers to visibility less than 180 m.

What is the difference between mist, fog and haze?
Fog, mist and haze all affect visibility, which is an important part of forecasts affecting many aspects of life, from driving conditions to shipping and aviation.
